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...

mobile phone not pcMy Dad has just confessed that whenever he had to text someone with a phone number for a sub contractor etc, he would write zero seven seven nine one two six etc, as he didn't realise you could get numbers by pressing the key 4 times, and only found out by accident this weekend. He proudly told us how to do it, in case we didn't know.
