People want to be told what to be no one wants to research. I blame the Zip disk for floppy drives existing today. Had the Super Disk technology won out it was backwards compatible with floppy disks. It just goes to show how adverstising beats out the better product.

    I'm an IT technician and I get very annoyed a stupid consumers when I still have to use a floppy disk.
    Ugh I remember those and I agree 100%.

    Iomega has never come out with a reliable product that shouldn't have been squashed by the competition.

    so anyhow, this guy picks up this gorgeous girl in a bar.

    they hit it off and decide to go back to her place. After doing what comes naturally, they are siting back, enjoying a smoke and he happens to notice a picture of a guy on the nightstand.

    Being a bit concerned, he asks "Is that your husband?

    she says, "No silly, don't wory about it."

    They go for round two. They are again smoking a cigarette but he can't get the picture of the guy out of his mind. He askes her "Well then, is that your boyfriend?

    Again, she says "No, don't worry about it."

    Fool that he is, he won't let it go. He says "Well then, who it it then?"

    She'a more than a little miffed now and replies "Ya really want to know, don't ya? OK then, here goes. That's me before the operation!"

    A woman in her forties went to a plastic surgeon for a facelift.
    The surgeon told her about a new procedure called "The Knob," where a small knob is placed at the top of the woman's head and can be turned to tighten up her skin and produce the affect of a brand new face-lift. Of course , the woman wanted "The Knob."

    Over the course of the years, the woman tightened the knob, and the effects were wonderful, the woman remained young looking and vibrant.
    After fifteen years, the woman returned to the surgeon with two problems . "All these years, everything has been working just fine. I've had to turn the knob many times and I've always loved the results. But now I've developed two annoying problems:

    First, I have these terrible bags under my eyes and the knob won't get rid of them."
    The doctor looked at her closely and said, "Those aren't bags, those are your breasts."

    She said, "Well, I guess there's no point in asking about the goatee .
