MURPHY'S LAWS OF COMPUTING

  • For every action, there is an equal and opposite malfunction.
  • To err is human... to blame your computer for your mistakes is even more human; in fact it is downright natural.
  • He who laughs last probably made a back-up.
  • If at first you don't succeed, blame your computer.
  • A complex system that does not work is invariably found to have evolved from a simpler system that worked just fine.
  • The number one cause of computer problems is computer solutions.
  • A computer program will always do what you tell it to do, but rarely what you want it to do.
  • When computing, whatever happens, behave as though you meant it to happen.
  • When you get to the point where you really understand your computer, it's probably obsolete.
  • The first place to look for information is in the section of the manual where you least expect to find it.
  • When the going gets tough, upgrade.
  • When you need to send an email quick, that's when the modem won't connect!
