"7. Another Dell customer needed help setting up a new program, so the Dell tech suggested he go to the local Egghead. "Yeah, I got me a couple of friends," the man said. When told Egghead was a software store, the man said, "Oh, I thought you meant for me to find a couple of geeks." " AHAAH

True story.... i pulled a monitor from a desk to setup for a dance..... i was then abrutly stop by a teacher..... saying that i couldn't take it... she had stuff to print out on it.... i explained to her (tried) that every machine has it.... and that all the information goes through these "wires" to a main computer..... trying to explain it simplest....she refused to accept it and got another teacher.... he also refuses.... i said look... i'll show you.... i, jumped on the server machine.. pull up all the information..... they said so.... what does the computer have to do with it.... i then hit print preview.... positioned it so that all i would have to do... is hit enter to print.... shut the monitor off..pull the plug... and pulled it off... then stated that if all the information was on the monitors... i wouldn't be able to print let alone do anything.... right?... i hit enter..the printer spits out a page.. they sorta looked cockeyed at me..... then stated that i could had pulled hte info from any of the other "computers" (which were monitors)..... i gave up... hit to power button the server...and said "now try"..... (don't worry about the server.... it shut down proberly and it wasn't major)..... they found it hard to beleive.....sorta like .... having to belive that we weren't from earth of something... it was weird.... they never did fully crasp it.....
