Title: M$ Makes Pc's???
Post by: CaptainCool on 16 September 2002, 01:45
Ok I was in my keyboarding class the other day and the instructor was talking about how M$ word was the most used word program in the market.
Then he says the reason word is at the top is because M$ makes computers and includes word with them....

Uhh, I was thinking Wtf is this dude on crack or somthing.

Did you correct him?  I love correcting teachers, they usually get SO mad, but cant do anything about it.

This is my experience with teachers at my new school so far:

"Actually, "SunOS" and Solaris are the same thing."

"It's called WS_FTP, not "WS-FTP" (it was written that way in our official book)".

"No, "connection lost" isn't a good thing".

"That thing isn't called a "VGA connector"."

"What do you mean: "Intel makes the best performing CPU's in the world."?"

"UNIX is like DOS? Yeah, and throwing my PC off a 10 stories high department is like turning it on."

"If you want to connect to FTP, filling in "www.download.com" as the host name isn't going to work..."

last year i had business technologies or somethin and we argued with our teacher for the whole fucking class one day because she claimed that cable internet/TV went through the phone lines. I tried to switch her class but there wasnt anything good i could take. All the phuxoring computer teachers at my school are Microsoft Nazis.
