“So we went to Atari and said, ‘Hey, we’ve got this amazing thing,
even built with some of your parts, and what do you think about
funding us? Or we’ll give it to you. We just want to do it. Pay our
salary, we’ll come work for you.’ And they said, ‘No.’

So then we went to Hewlett-Packard, and they said, ‘Hey, we don’t
need you. You haven’t got through college yet.'”

……Apple Computer Inc. founder Steve Jobs on attempts to get Atari
and H-P interested in his and Steve Wozniak’s personal computer.

big mistake……huge!!!!

Really Bad Joke…Sorry

Posted by Kim in Fun at 8:35 pm | Permanent Link

A man is driving along a highway and sees a rabbit jump out across
the middle of the road. He swerves to avoid hitting it, but
unfortunately the rabbit jumps right in front of the car.

The driver, a sensitive man as well as an animal lover, pulls over
and gets out to see what has become of the rabbit. Much to his
dismay, the rabbit is dead.

The driver feels so awful that he begins to cry. A beautiful blonde
woman driving down the highway sees a man crying on the side
of the road and pulls over.She steps out of the car and asks the man
what’s wrong. “I feel terrible,” he explains, “I accidentally hit this
rabbit and killed it.” The blonde says, “Don’t worry.” She runs to her
car and pulls out a spray can.

She walks over to the limp, dead rabbit, bends down, and sprays the
contents onto the rabbit. The rabbit jumps up, waves its paw at the
two of them and hops off down the road. Ten feet away the rabbit
stops, turns around and waves again, he hops down the road another
10 feet, turns and waves, hops another ten feet, turns and waves,
and repeats this again and again and again, until he hops out of sight.

The man is astonished. He runs over to the woman and demands,
“What is in that can? What did you spray on that rabbit?” The woman
turns the can around so that the man can read the label.

It says…

Murphy’s Technology Laws

Posted by Kim in Fun at 8:53 pm | Permanent Link

Logic is a systematic method of coming to the wrong conclusion with
confidence.

Tell a man there are 300 billion stars in the universe and he’ll believe
you. Tell him a bench has wet paint on it and he’ll have to touch to be
sure.

All great discoveries are made by mistake.

All’s well that ends.

To err is human, but to really foul things up requires a computer.

The faster a computer is, the faster it will reach a crashed state.

Computers are unreliable, but humans are even more unreliable. Any
system which depends on human reliability is unreliable.

The only perfect science is hind-sight.

If there is a possibility of several things going wrong the one that will
cause the most damage will be the one to go wrong.

Any attempt to print Murphy’s laws will jam the printer.

…..and finally one just for Steve…..

When all else fails, read the instructions.
