We all learned a few things during our KH Computer Help Desk PalTalk session tonight and had a few laughs.:)
"Mr Puns" (NCBQA), Dan R, rbob (Kern), Rich (Mylanta), Photolady, Rob Cohan, Elliot, and Fred Freehold graced us with their presence.
Tonyd (aka Kelly) must have been hard at work; we missed you, Tony! Redwine_7 joined us; but red wine or no red wine, I don't think he was a paesano and could fill the void. BTW, I was correct. It's spelled paesano, not paisano,. Check out http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=paesano for spelling and some humorous comments.
Pigeonhead showed up again, as usual. This time he actually joined in the conversation, in the text box and on the mic! Alas, we can no longer call him our silent partner.
We discussed what should be saved for the customer when reformatting. Photolady was once accused of losing a female client's photo folder. She got hell for two days until the client's husband admitted to deleting the folder because it contained his porn!:rofl:
We discussed Vista; Admuncher; the futility of getting a PHD in Computer Science; Cable/DSL connections; comparison of E-Machines, Dells, Gateways, Macs; computer tech support fees; computer obsolescence; $299 cheaply made computers; cameras and photography; and a lot more.
And, if I understood it correctly:noidea:, rbob explained that the stuff near the clock on my desktop is called the system notification area or system tray, distinguishing it from the quick launch of the taskbar. BTW, rbob, you can be replaced (just kidding) -- I googled and found this web site with Operating System Definitions: http://www.computerhope.com/jargon/os.htm
Join us next Wednesday night -- guru, computer savvy, not-so-savvy, or newbie. There's something for all of us.
