*We've all been here.....

What Your Computer Is Trying To Tell You*

It says: "Press Any Key"
It means: "Press any key you like but I'm not moving."

It says: "Fatal Error. Please contact technical support quoting error
no. 1A4-2546512430E"
It means: "... where you will be kept on hold for 30 minutes, only to be
told that it's a hardware problem."

It says: "Installing program to C:\...."
It means: "... And I'll also be writing a few files into c:\windows and
c:\windows\system where you'll NEVER find them (in part because they
will have names that correspond to no known progams ever written.)"

It says: "Please insert disk 5"
It means: "Because I know darn well there are only 4 disks."

It says: "Not enough memory"
It means: "I don't CARE if you've got 128MB of RAM, I want to use only
the bit below 640K."

It says: "Cannot read from drive D:...."
It means: "... However, if you put the CD in right side up..."

It says: "Please Wait...."
It means: "... Indefinitely."

It says: "Directory does not exist...."
It means: ".... any more. oops!"

It says: "The application caused an error. Choose Ignore or Close."
It means: "....Makes no difference to me, you're still not getting your
work back. Kiss your afternoon goodbye..."
