N1K Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 These images are the result of 8 years in the retail computer industry - 8 years that are thankfully behind me. I used to work in the service department in a retail store of a very famous computer company (think cows...). During this time, I was able to observe (and preserve for posterity) the aftereffects of the - shall we say - "technology challenged" folks. My friends and relatives couldn't believe the stories I told - thus this collection of photos.Thanks to everyone who has written about this site. I am thrilled to be able to lighten the day of so many people around the world!!Many thanks to Stag Hosting for providing a new home for SCT!!!

mikeh420 Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 Just when you thought you've seen everything! There are some people who shouldn't be allowed within 50 feet of a computer, and I think you have found almost all of them!Thanx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
