Bill Gates In Purgatory

Bill gates has been in a car accident. He finds himself in purgatory, being sized up by St. Peter.

- Well, Bill, I'm really confused on this call. I'm not sure where to send you. After all, you helped society enormously by putting a computer in almost every home in America, yet you also created that ghastly Windows '95. I'm going to do something I've never done before. In your case, I'm going to let you decide whether you want to go to Heaven or Hell.

Bill replied:

- Well, what's the difference between the two?

St. Peter:

- I'm willing to let you visit both places briefly, if it will help your decision.

Bill:

- Fine, but where should I go first?

St. Peter:

- I'll leave that up to you.

"Okay then," said Bill, "Let's try Hell first."

So Bill went to Hell. It was a beautiful, clean, sandy beach with clear waters and lots of bikini-clad women running around, playing in the water, laughing, and frolicking about. The sun was shining, the temperature was perfect. Bill was very pleased.

"This is great!" he told St. Peter. "If this is hell, I really want to see heaven!"

"Fine," said St. Peter, and off they went.

Heaven was a place high in the clouds, with angels drifting about, playing harps and singing. It was nice, but not as enticing as Hell. Bill thought for a minute, and rendered his decision.

"Hmmm. I think I'd prefer Hell," he told St. Peter.

"Fine," retorted St. Peter, "as you desire." So Bill Gates went to Hell.

Two weeks later, St. Peter decided to check on the late billionaire to see how he was doing in Hell. When he got there, he found Bill, shackled to a wall, screaming amongst hot flames in dark caves, being burned and tortured by demons. "How's everything going?" he asked Bill.

Bill responded, with his voice filled with anguish and disappointment, "This is awful! This is nothing like the Hell I visited two weeks ago! I can't believe this is happening! What happened to that other place, with the beautiful beaches, the scantily-clad women playing in the water?"

"That was a demo," replied St. Peter.

Cup Holder Call

Tech Support hotlines are not easy work, you get calls from all sorts of idiotic users that apparently can't read a manual, or lack common sense. Here is a transcript of just one such case:

- Caller: Hello is this Packard Bell Tech support?

- Tech: Yes how can I help you?

- Caller: The cup holder on front of my computer broke off and it is still under warranty, how do I go about getting it fixed?

- Tech: Excuse, you've stumped me. How did you get this cup holder, was it part of some promotion?

- Caller: It came with the computer, I don't know of any promotion.

- Tech: Does it have any markings on it, any names, any symbols?

- Caller: Yes, it says 4X!

Why Computers Are Male

Top 10 reasons computers must be male:

  1. They have a lot of data but are still clueless.
  2. A better model is always just around the corner.
  3. They look nice and shiny until you bring them home.
  4. It is always necessary to have a backup.
  5. They'll do whatever you say if you push the right buttons.
  6. Big power surges knock them out for the night.
  7. In order to get their attention, you have to turn them on.
  8. The lights are on but nobody's home.
  9. The best part of having either one is the games you can play.

The Airplane Game

A Programmer and an Engineer were sitting next to each other on an airplane. The Programmer leans over to the Engineer and asks if he wants to play a fun game. The Engineer just wants to sleep so he politely declines, turns away and tries to sleep.

The Programmer persists and explains that it's a real easy game. He explains:

- I ask a question and if you don't know the answer you pay me $5. Then you ask a question and if I don't know the answer I'll pay you $5.

Again the Engineer politely declines and tries to sleep.

The Programmer, now somewhat agitated, says:

- O.K., if you don't know the answer you pay me $5 and if I don't know the answer I pay you $50!

Now, that got the Engineer's attention, so he agrees to the game. The Programmer asks the first question:

- What's the distance from the earth to the moon?

Then Engineer doesn't say a word and just hands the Programmer $5.

Now, its the Engineer's turn. He asks the Programmer:

- What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down on four?

The Programmer looks at him with a puzzled look, takes out his laptop computer, looks through all his references and after about an hour wakes the Engineer and hands the Engineer $50. The Engineer politely takes the $50 turns away and tries to return to sleep.

The Programmer, a little miffed, asks:

- Well what's the answer to the question?

Without a word, the Engineer reaches into his wallet, hands $5 to the Programmer, turns away and returns to sleep.
