Guest LilBambi Posted June 18, 2003 Posted June 18, 2003 QUOTE (jbredmound @ Jun 17 2003, 12:53 AM) Jack of all Trades QUOTE (teacher @ Jun 17 2003, 03:13 PM) Isn't that what anyone with any sense of logic that can mess with computers becomes. Some of us might be Jill of all trades or Joy or Julia or Fran or ...... but I have yet to know anyone that fixes their friend's computers that has not come under this description. Now about that Jack........ Is that what drove you to drink?Now, I am confused ... I thought Jack of all Trades was a humankind type of statement, like mankind, Fireman, or maybe like the old way of understanding Postman and Policeman (at least till feminists ruined them!).BTW: As long as we are not mentioning OSes, I thought I'd remind folks that it's L, M, W and U. Can't forget that U one !! Quote
BarryB Posted June 18, 2003 Posted June 18, 2003 Nope...Can't forget the U...The L's estranged father ...another saga in the never ending story" As the OS Churns"...or "The Edge of OS" or "OS Family Feud" Quote
Bruno Posted June 18, 2003 Posted June 18, 2003 The L, the M, the W and M, the U and lets not forget the D ! Just as long it is not the S.C.O. !! That would really put me off ! The L.U.D. Penguin Quote
Guest LilBambi Posted June 18, 2003 Posted June 18, 2003 Ah, yes, the $50,000 D OS, and it's various variants as well.Maybe we shouldn't forget B and O, actually the two different Os, either Quote
GolfProRM Posted June 18, 2003 Posted June 18, 2003 Don't forget the P OS (no pun intended ) either!Now granted it's a "small" OS and it fits right into your hand. Quote
Guest LilBambi Posted June 18, 2003 Posted June 18, 2003 I almost added that one ... but I wanted to leave one for you Quote
siebkens Posted June 18, 2003 Posted June 18, 2003 Name that OS...BOB! (you did mean "other self" didn't you? )Wasn't Bob the goofy dog that MS decided was the answer to lead us through learning their messaging and word proceesing software at one time? Ick!K*****x is the OS that I won't spell out here - it seems to do strange things to the penquin (reminds me of the cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs bird!) Quote
teacher Posted June 19, 2003 Author Posted June 19, 2003 Nothing like an OS game to get a bunch of geeks going! Okay, are there any alphabetical characters left? Quote
jbredmound Posted June 19, 2003 Posted June 19, 2003 Nothing like an OS game to get a bunch of geeks going! Okay, are there any alphabetical characters left?IE?OK, I'll leave peaceably....but I'll be back! Quote
