Fun For All

Three engineers in a car

There are three engineers in a car; an electrical engineer, a chemical engineer
and a Software engineer expert on Microsoft Technologies. Suddenly the car just stops by the side of the road, and
the three engineers look at each other wondering what could be wrong.
The electrical engineer suggests stripping down the electronics of the car and trying
to trace where a fault might have occurred. The chemical engineer, not knowing much
about cars, suggests that maybe the fuel is becoming emulsified and getting blocked
somewhere.
Then, the engineer expert on Microsoft technologies , not knowing much about anything, comes up with a suggestion,
"Why don't we close all the windows, get out, get back in, open the windows again,
and maybe it'll work ?"

A plain computer illiterate guy rings

Tech Support to report that his computer is faulty.

Tech Support : What’s the problem?

Customer : There is smoke coming out of the power supply.

Tech Support : (keep quite)

Tech Support : You’ll need a new power supply.

Customer : No, I don’t! I just need to change the startup files.

Tech Support : Sir, the power supply is faulty. You’ll need to replace
it.0
Customer : No way! Someone told me that I just needed to change the
start up and it will fix the problem! All I need is for you to tell me
the command.

Tech support : 10 minutes later, the User is still adamant that he is right. The techie is frustrated and fed up.

Tech support : (hush hush)

Tech Support : Sorry, Sir. We don’t normally tell our customers this,
but thereis an undocumented DOS command that will fix the problem.

Customer : I knew it!

Tech Support : Just add the line LOAD NOSMOKE.COM at the end of the
CONFIG.SYS . Let me know how it goes.

10 minutes later.

Customer : It didn’t work. The power supply is still smoking.

Tech Support : Well, what version of DOS are you using?

Customer : MS-DOS 6.22 .

Tech Support : That’s your problem there. That version of DOS didn’t
come with NOSMOKE. Contact Microsoft and ask them for a patch that
will give you the file. Let me know how it goes.

1 hour later.
