fun with computers

I work in a computer lab, so I thought these were kinda funny.  Thankfully I’ve never came across a conversation quite as brilliant as these…

I work for a technical college in Georgia as the only tech support staff on campus. A few days ago, I had a gentlemen ask me about purchasing a PC.

Him: “I’m looking at purchasing this Dell. Do you think I will need My Computer? Or what about My Documents? How much do they cost?”

Me: “Sir, that comes with all Windows machines.”

Him: “Oh wow! I thought you had to pay extra for those!”


I was one of a group of students who would help other students and teachers at my high school with computer problems. One day I got a call from a teacher saying that her computer was not working at all. I went to her room to find a perfectly good Mac PowerPC on her desk. With one problem.

Me: “Excuse me, ma’am. Where’s the keyboard?”

Teacher: “Oh, it’s over there in my travel bag.”


Customer: “Hi, I was wondering if you could fix my laptop. It’s under warranty.”

Tech Support: “What seems to be the trouble with it?”

Customer: “My wife got mad and threw it in the pool.”

There are a ton more that you can read here:
