Free Tech Support: For Life
Posted by Jonathon Watkins in "OFF-TOPIC" @ 05:00 PM
"You're wedded to a computer screen for much of the day, you e-mail and browse the web without a second thought and texting, well, it's just part of everyday life. To your peers, you're no more technologically savvy than the next person, but to your parents you are Bill Gates, Albert Einstein and Mr Clippy rolled into one. Of those who returned to the family roost for Christmas, many will have found the normal festive activities peppered with a rather less traditional commitment: fixing mum or dad's computer."
How true, how very, very true! For me, this BBC news story hits the nail on the head. Your folks give you the gift of life and you give them free tech support for life. Anyone else have the feeling that when you go round to relatives that you may end up seeing more of their computer than the people you went to see? :helpme: And how do you like being compared to Clippy? :wink:
