Datorer är inte lätt...

Kollade lite i min hyfsat stora* samling bokmärken i webbläsaren. Hittade en gammal goding:
Computer Stupidities

En stor samling med (påstått) sanna historier om datoranvändare. Innan jag ger några smakprov vill jag bara poängtera att jag inte på något sätt ringaktar de som kan mindre än mig om datorer.
Smakproven:

Customer: "I received the software update you sent, but I am still getting the same error message."
Tech Support: "Did you install the update?"
Customer: "No. Oh, am I supposed to install it to get it to work?"


Me: "Have you tried rebooting your computer?"
Customer: "What?! Oh no, you never, EVER, reboot a computer!"
Me: "Ma'am, I can assure you that it's perfectly safe to--"
Customer: "No! If I went to the president of Milicron (a computer manufacturer) and told him that you said to reboot my machine, he would just laugh at that! You don't ever reboot a computer!"
Me: "Well, something like that might be reasonable if it were a large server or something, but rebooting your PC won't cause any--"
Customer: "No! No! No!" (click)

TV channel 11 in Atlanta has just advised us to turn off "and unplug" our home computers to keep them from being vandalized by web site hackers.


Ta det lugnt med datorerna och sov gott!
