"ID Ten T" Error?
« on: February 22, 2011, 07:16:40 AM »
As we "Silver Surfers" (older folks on the Internet) know, sometimes we have trouble with our computers.
I had a problem yesterday, so I called Eric, the eleven year old next door, whose bedroom looks like Mission Control and asked him to come over.
Eric clicked a couple of buttons and solved the problem.
As he was walking away, I called after him, 'So, what was wrong?
He replied, 'It was an ID ten T error.'
I didn't want to appear stupid, but nonetheless inquired,
'An, ID ten T error? What's that? In case I need to fix it again.'
Eric grinned.... 'Haven't you ever heard of an ID ten T error before?
'No,' I replied.
'Write it down,' he said, 'and I think you'll figure it out.'

So I wrote down:

ID10T


I used to like Eric, that little sh#%.

My favorite when I was a sales manager for a computer shop was the "loose nut behind the keyboard" fix.

As for the little arse head telling you an ID10T error...sounds like he needs a solid beat down by his parents for the SA mouth.

I've used that at work

'what was wrong with it?'
'nothing I can't fix it's an ID10T error'
'is that SERIOUS'
'it can be recurring.  Try not having 20 windows open at once and it will run a little faster'

1d10t errors are easily prevented...unfortunately, it takes many 1d10t errors for people to figure it out...
