Fuego's Quote Of The Day...

[badstar]

Me, to a customer on the line... "I'm sorry sir, I'm not aware of the potential interference that dead mafia victims may pose to your wireless networking capabilities."

After asking what stood between his computer and wireless router, the guy rattled off several things...an aquarium, walls, assorted household miscilania and then he said "My building's like, old. I'm pretty sure there are dead mafia guys in the walls."

When I was a tech support idiot (now just your standard garden variety
idiot), my favorite calls, apart from the yokels in Corsicana who
"couldn't get their thing off their thing", were the day
traders. "Every day your !@#$%^!!ing network sucks so bad, I'm losing
money!" Never mind that he's using a POS $5 soft modem (not even a
good soft modem, but the really horrible ones) with a computer that
had too little memory and a failing hard drive and 48,275 other
applications open. If they were making any real money, they'd've at
least had ISDN. (Sheesh) I feel your pain. But at least this guy was
entertaining, and that's something, anyway.

I want a Mac Mini! (Don't need a screen, so why pay extra for one?)
