Things to
remember about computers |
- Never Ever format your computer at 4.00am
- Never assume your computer can't hear you. It has
ears, you just can't see them.
- Don't balance your drink can on your pc. They are
conspiring against you.
- Never EVER use furniture polish to clean your
monitor.
- The guys who sells stuff in the computer shop will
assume you know nothing because you are a woman. (probably).
- Know your serial from your parallel.
- If you think you've been on your computer for three
hours, you'll probably find you've been on for six.
- When you first get internet access at home you'll
need to invest in
- some under-eye concealer.
- phone stamps. and sit down before you read the first
phone bill after getting online, especially if you use IRC.
- Don't ever believe the phrase 'just plug it in' when
buying hardware.
- Yes I know you could buy a much faster computer with
the money you spent on the one you bought six months ago, but tough, thats the way of the
computer.
- PCs most only come in beige. Shameful but true.
- Most hardware and peripherals also come in beige.
