Oldies vs ComputersAs someone who is "good with computers" I get a lot of calls from people who've got problems. Some of them even have problems with their computers.
Back many years ago working for a telecoms company, I was called to a senior secretary who "had put a disk into the drive and couldn't get it out". She had one of the first Mac II machines with two drive slots. But only one drive.
Opening up the case revealed stacks of floppy disks that she'd been posting through the hole in the case for weeks. She'd only decided there was a problem when her boss wanted one of them back...

You decide...My PC was playing up and not displaying picture thumbnails and I ended up taking it to this blokes house, the guy who’d originally installed the system a couple of years back, as he did the odd foreigner. He was old for the IT business but knew his stuff. I wasn’t the least bit bothered about all the porn that had accumulated, after all, we’re all men of the world? Anyway, I rang him the next day to see how he’d got on and he said he’d fixed it and was looking at the rude photos in a certain folder as we spoke. To this day I wonder whether or not he knew she was actually my wife?!!
…and did he knock one out over her!!?
