Microsoft Surface

by Mike Stephens 30. May 2007 21:26
So I saw the news about Microsoft Surface today.  Pretty cool indeed but it is certainly not new technology.  I saw this article over a year ago.   Hopefully Microsoft doing this will bring the touchscreen technology to the real user though, there are very cool things to be done with it but it is so expensive to implement.

21 ways to determine if you are a stupid computer user

by Mike Stephens 17. May 2007 13:23
I saw this on Digg, someone grabbed the list and copied it so I'm reposting here,   I was mildly amused by it.

1. Do you proclaim, out loud, your three year old knows more about computers than you do?
2. Are you still looking for the “Any Key”?
3. Do you really think you win something for being the 421,232th visitor?
4. Is your only solution to call the family “computer geek”?
5. Do you call the thing above the 8 a snowflake?
6. Is Netscape 4.7 your default browser?
7. Do you believe that the Firefox people are talking about is the 1982 movie about a really cool jet?
8. Do the blinking ads compel you to click?
9. Are your passwords on a sticky note on your monitor?
10. Do you ignore those messages that tell your anti-virus subscription has expired?
11. Is your home network’s name “linksys”?
12. Do you not believe in a firewall?
13. Have you paid for any Geek Squad services?
14. Do you anxiously open every attachment in your email?
15. When someone is explaining something technical, do you dismiss it as “computer talk”?
16. Do you think you can get a free iPod for filling out your zip code?
17. Do you believe the IT people have magical powers?
18. Do you have a collection of AOL discs?
19. Have you hit your monitor when your computer gave an error?
20. Do you still the think the Internet is a fad?
21. When someone asks what’s wrong with your computer, do you respond with, “It’s running slow”?

by Mike Stephens 15. May 2007 00:23
So today I was looking for the link to the funniest Dilbert strip I had ever seen and it had been removed.  So I searched long and hard and found an archived copy of it and linked it here.    Seriously,  the best ever. If you can't read it all click here.
