I went to the bookstore today to pick up some supplies, (tape, staples,
O'Reilly Books [1]) and I overheard this conversation:
<Luser> I want to upgrade my PC
<Luser Employee> What kind of computer do you have
<Luser> 486DX2 66
<Luser Employee> What do you want to upgrade
<Luser> I want to make it faster
<Luser Employee> Oh -- you need Windows 95
<Luser> Oh, Ok, How much is it
.....
I really wanted to give these two a clue, but it was way too funny
[1] It seems that our CSC department is offering a class in System
Adminitration, and the texts for this class are Essential System
Administration and Learning Perl.
