    In a nutshell? The cause of all the problems?

    Ya can't take a mid-tower desktop, hardwired to a server and two monitors, to a cook-out and drop it in a pool, after all! rolleyes

    But they are so damn convenient.:D


    The whole 2-3 yr life span has to be wrong. :eek My laptop is 2 and fine. My desktop is 7 yrs old! You just need to be good to it.

    LOL

    ...the cause of prematurely aging computers. And they wonder why their computers talk back to them and refuse to perform. :D

    But laptops are good though and IT should love them as they are much much easier to smack over the head of an idiot user! than a desktop ;)

    WHACK WHACK WHACK......

    Yes, much easier, but also less painful.

    Plus, you're liable to break the darn lappy on the thick skull!

    Yes, but if that happens you don't have to fix it!

    this whole list was way too close to the truth for me. I almost cried tears of shame and rage. Then I kicked a puppy, knocked down a little girl, took her lollipop and all was better in my world.

    I had one user that when he booted the machine up, his log in password was blank, he automatically logged into the VPN by what ever means and a bunch of other things. he had his son write a batch script to do these things. he then proceeded to have his laptop stolen because he is a total and complete moron. the things that I wanna do to this idiot are not fit for man nor beast...
