[Elwood P Dowd]

so I can have some fun with my freeper friends. They are having trouble with the video where McCain admits he is a village idiot with computers. Need to rub a little more salt into the wound. What computer will Gramps use to research the problems on the Iraq-Pakistan border?

[zulchzulu]

7. It's simple

Once the decision is made, these two rocks will be part of a large program to make something like a computer available to Senator McCain. Once the campaign figures out just where all this computer stuff is coming from, they plan on starting with the rocks and "moving on from there".

12. McCain's Home Computer

[Buns_of_Fire]

41. The steering wheel is a nice touch.

Or maybe it's there to allow the home user to dial in MAXIMUM ENERGY! (a reference to "Frankenstein meets the Space Monster," for all fans of le bad cinema) from their personal power grid, which is fueled by water and Joy liquid detergent.

Ultimate SuperDuper Computer Store. Can I help you?

Thanks. I'm setting up a home office in the den, and I'm thinking of buying a computer.

Mac?

No, the name is Bud.

Your computer?

I don't own a computer. I want to buy one.

Mac?

I told you, my name is Bud.

What about Windows?

Why? Does it get stuffy?

Do you want a computer with Windows?

I don't know. What do I see when I look out the windows?

Wallpaper.

Never mind the windows. I need a computer and software.

Software that runs on Windows?

No, on the computer! I need something I can use to write proposals, track expenses. You know, run a business. What have you got?

Office.

Yeah, for my office. Can you recommend anything?

I just did.

You just did what?

Recommended something.

You recommended something?

Yes.

For my office?

Yes.

Okay, what did you recommend for my office?

Office.

Yes, for my office.

Office for Windows.

I already have an office and it already has windows! Let's say I'm sitting at my computer, and I want to type a proposal. What do I need?

Word.

If I'm writing a proposal, I'm going to need lots of words. But what program do I load?

Word.

What word?

The Word in Office.

The only word in office is office.

The Word in Office for Windows.

Which word in "office for windows?"

The Word you get when you click the blue W.

I'm going to click your big W if you don't give me a straight answer. Let's forget about words for a minute. What do I need if I want to watch a movie over the Internet?

RealOne.

Maybe a real movie, maybe a cartoon. What I watch is none of your business. But what do I need to watch it?

RealOne.

If it's a long movie I'll also want to watch reels two, three and four. Can I watch reel four?

Of course.

Great! With what?

RealOne.

Okay, so I'm sitting at my computer and I want to watch a movie. What do I do?

You click the blue 1.

I click the blue one what?

The blue 1.

Is that different from the blue W?

Of course it is. The blue 1 is RealOne. The blue W is Word.

What word?

lots more ...

[Generic Other]

55. the place to find easy answers!

[Ezlivin]

56. McCain is against the binary numbering system - says Americans need more than ones and zeroes

Besides, any word with "bi" in it is suspect in his eyes.

[Firespirit]

65. Except for "bigamy." nt

[chemenger]

57. McLame has all the phalanges he needs to count up to 20 ...

and if he needs to count to 21 then he can always count on his little politician. I think that he rarely needs to count any higher than that.
