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...

idonthaveafunnynickname, I'm sorryI'll do a true one then, just for you. I've only known how to use a PC for about 3 years and even then it's all basic stuff and not much else. My Dad however ran the R&D lab in one of the large companies in Team Valley and has been using computers in one form or other since about 1970, frankly he's a ruddy genius. Errm, there you go, hysterical eh.
