Some light relief for those of us who experience computer problems
« on: Friday 16 May 08 05:34 BST (UK) »

Read this today in a weekly newsletter I receive.

I was having trouble with my computer. So I called Eric, the 11 year old next door, whose bedroom looks like Mission Control, to come over. Eric clicked a couple of buttons and solved the problem. As he was walking away, I called after him, 'So, what was wrong?'
He replied, 'It was an ID ten T error. 'I didn't want to appear stupid, but nonetheless inquired, 'An, ID ten T error? What's that.... In case I need to fix it again?'
Eric grinned.... 'Haven't you ever heard of an ID ten T error before?'
'No,' I replied.
'Write it down,' he said, 'and I think you'll figure it out.'
So I wrote down: I D 1 0 T
I used to like Eric.............
