Respite for Help Desks...

I think this was posted previously, but I'll repost for those who missed it before.

Came to me this time from a programmer at Sun.

Quote:
There are a lot of changes that are going to be taking place across the
board as far as the servers & personal computers go. The goal is to
remove all laptop computers by December 2002 and
all desktops computers by February 2003 as a part of the ongoing
cost-cutting around the company.
Instead, everyone will be provided with an Etch-A-Sketch. There are
many sound reasons for doing this:

1. No boot-up problems
2. No technical glitches keeping work from being done.
3. No more wasted time reading and writing emails.
4. No more worries about power cuts.
5. Budget savings on Upgrades unparalleled

Frequently Asked Questions from the Etch-A-Sketch Help Desk:

Q: My Etch-A-Sketch has all of these funny little lines all over the
screen.
A: Pick it up and shake it.

Q: How do I turn my Etch-A-Sketch off?
A: Pick it up and shake it.

Q: What's the shortcut for Undo?
A: Pick it up and shake it.

Q: How do I create a New Document window?
A: Pick it up and shake it.

Q: How do I set the background and foreground to the same colour?
A: Pick it up and shake it.

Q: What is the proper procedure for rebooting my Etch-A-Sketch?
A: Pick it up and shake it.

Q: How do I delete a document on my Etch-A-Sketch?
A: Pick it up and shake it.

Q: How do I save my Etch-A-Sketch document?
A: Don't shake it.

If you have any further queries, please feel free to contact the IT
department.


Cheers
Mick
