Someone once told me that gullible wasn't in the dictionary and I went, "yeah yeah ha ha" but when they were gone that didn't stop me checking. What was YOUR most gullible moment? Zero points for buying an icon on b3ta.

I was tasked with taking a group of executives around the datacenter and demonstrating what a wonderful, fail-safe, backed-up to the hilt datacenter we had.
I stood in front of one of the racks, opened the door and pointed to Dell Poweredge server.
"Quite apart from having all the data held in a RAID array with dual power supplies, dual network cards and it's own built-in UPS, even the servers have dual RAID 1 mirrored disks. If a disk fails, the other one takes over automatically and the management software sends a page to us. And, as the drives are hot-swapable, it means that I can replace a drive, while the server is running, and won't miss a beat. Watch"
BBBBBBRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrr.....clunk
Hot-swapable my arse!

I never trust doing anything like that in front of customers lest this happen!
