Your computer has crashed again, sending your precious  data into infinity. What do you do? Rant and rave? Say that the world is an illusion? Or take a hockey stick to that f@#$%&* machine?

A few quotes might help you decide ......


* Computers are useless. They can only give you answers.
-Pablo Pocasso

*To err is human, but to really foul things up you need a computer.
-Paul Ehrlich

*The perfect computer has been developed. You just feed in your problems and they never come out again.
-Al Goodman

*Error, keyboard not found - press F1 to continue.
-BIOS system message


*All sorts of computer errors are now turning up. You'd be surprised to know the number of doctors who claim they are treating pregnant men.
-Issac Asimov

*The most overlooked advantage of owning a computer is that if they foul up there's no law against wacking them around a bit.
-Eric Poterfield

*Computer dating is fine, if you're a computer.
-Rita May Brown

*If computers get too powerful , we can organise the into a committee-- that will do them in.
-Bradley's Bromide

*The computer industry is like women's clothing--except it is more fashion driven.
-Lawrence J. Ellison

Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning.

10 programming laws:
1) Any given program, when running, is obsolete.
2) Any given program costs more and takes longer.
3) If a program is useful, it will have to be changed.
4) If a program is useless, it will have to be documented.
5) Any program will expand to fill available memory.
6) The value of a program is proportional to the weight of its output.
7) Program complexity grows until it exceeds the capabilities of the programmer who must maintain it.
8) Any non-trivial program contains at least one bug.
9) Undetectable errors are infinite in variety, in contrast to detectable errors, which by definition are limited.
10) Adding manpower to a late software project makes it later.

Brooke's law:
Whenever a system becomes completely defined, some damn fool discovers something which either abolishes the system or expands it beyond recognition.

Conclussion:
Garbage in, garbage out

the reasoning behind the no keyboard, press F1 thing is that you will only be able to press F1 with a keyboard plugged in, so by pressing F1 you have plugged in a keyboard and therefore you will be able to use the PC

hey saral its just the irony of the statement that you have to press a key on the keyboard even thought it says that the keyboard is  not present ...... not to get to understanding it
