    quality because quantity makes our nations wasteful!i hate this throwaway culture where we buy cheap goods that don't last long and are thown away far more often. it royaly pisses me off especially since i work in a supermarket and the customers can be impatient tight fisted ... *ahem*

    Which is better? a cheap fiat punto that breaks down every 5 freakin minutes (like my mates old one)
    or a lush jag x-type thatll last forever and will look classy forever?

    Well, I asked my boss about that, and he said that I kinda was like, "Is it better to serve more food or to serve better food?" Of course, he also said he thought it was a stupid question and, to him, it didn't matter...
    Boy am I an unfunny ass.

    Quality it's like saying 5 computers with Windows 98 or 1 with Windows XP

    (i'd choose AMD over Intel/Pentium any day)

    Quality, definitely.

    Say for example I was a commander in the military.I'd rather have 5 well-trained soldiers under my command than a platoon of 25 poorly-trained,substandard soldiers.

    Well when it comes to money i would definitely go for quantity.

    When it comes to my microprocessor chip quality holds true. (AMD baby!)

    When it comes to my bowling score, i'd say quantity, but i'd need a quality bowling ball in order to achieve that high quantity score. None of those crappy house balls will suffice.
    There was a man,
    Selling chicks in a box.
    He said, "2 for 1, but 3 for 2."
    I said, "That's not bad,
    Here's money for you."

    You can't have both quality and quantity.

    However, let's see. In business terms, if you want to sell as many as possible, you'll sell more for a cheap price. If you want to sell a high quality item, your business will make several, and sell for a higher price, but the quality is good, so it's well worth the price.

    So, higher quantity = lower price; higher quality = higher price

    Of course, I'd go for quality most of the time, but as a consumer, I'll go for the cheaper because I'm a cheapskate, so quantity for me in that sense.

    However, I prefer to have quality over quantity.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    Ah, fair enough then. And good for your boss. In terms of food? Quantity. So long as I can eat it, I'm pretty much happy. 'Course, most places I eat actually do give good food in large amounts, so yays. xD

    Quantity is reserved for idiots with a disorder we like to call 'Need their money taken from them.'

    Let's hypothetically assume that you can only have one.
