Giles! I accidentally killed Spike. That's okay, right?

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Oh. Now that you mention it, that makes a lot more sense.
I blame lack of caffeine.

These images are the result of 8 years in the retail computer industry - 8 years that are thankfully behind me. I used to work in the service department in a retail store of a very famous computer company (think cows...). During this time, I was able to observe (and preserve for posterity) the aftereffects of the - shall we say - "technology challenged" folks. My friends and relatives couldn't believe the stories I told - thus this collection of photos.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
DSL folks, my problem was cleared up by powering down the dsl modem for a while.
Go to that first. Restarting boxen and routers is not needed.

Um.
My dad used to do all my souping for me, but since I got a laptop I'll have to bring it somewhere.
Unfortunately, it's pretty much impossible to upgrade the video capabilities of a laptop unless you're extremely handy with a soldering iron. And maybe not even then.
In other words, no soup for you. IJS.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

No worky, sorry. I have one of those sitting around my house, too, btw, if anyone wants it.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
Aww, if I bring it in they can't upgrade the video card? That bites.
Stupid self, not thinking of things before I do 'em..
