Support technician's dream:

This. I work at a location with 3 other people; I think they'd know that I was the one that sent the 'anonymous' disgruntled email.

Koh needs to be kicked off the case. She has a severe bias towards Apple and won't let Samsung really get in edge-wise.

$100... *(on 2 year rapefest contract, oh, and you're on AT&T, so enjoy an extra helping of rape)

Yep. I have the 20/2 package and I'm consistently getting 24-25, so that's pretty damn good... oh do I love Time Warner yet hate their IVR that keeps thinking I say things when I don't so it beatboxes its' way to an operator...

Very, very slow and awful. I work in a call center that handles a SHITTON of rural ISPs and we have a testing machine with one of the ISPs' dial up accounts.

And depreciation is a bitch, too. My Rio went from $13,000 purchased last year to $7000 at most this year booked.

I remember doing that on a 95 box. AST Advantage! Adventure! with only a 500MB hard drive. Not enough space for the full install of Office 97? Let's go delete all the things from C:\Windows!

Getting "special privileges" to play computer games in first and second grade on the shiny new HP Vectras running Windows... 95/8, if memory serves.

Other than the points it seems a hell of a lot cheaper fine-wise. I got pulled over for 17 over and the asshat cop marked it down to 15 over telling me he was going to "give me a break".

Renting an Insight from Zipcar... getting to the car... then finding out some nitwit left the lights on so the car wouldn't unlock with my card. Even with all that massive high voltage hybrid battery pack shit Honda can't figure out how to 'top off' the 12V aux battery from that massive power source in the back?

I'd rather drive the iMiev. Or a 528i. Or something that isn't a Volt or a Tesla.

I tried to fix my father's Colorado trailer signal wiring problem by buying a second aftermarket wiring harness (from Walmart), follow some wiring guide online, and use cheap NAPA splice connectors to get his turn signals working again on the trailer.

it IS staged; also:

Yes there is. Let me turn off the stupid bloody ad ticker clock that is still an eyesore.

Yeah, and I have a Celestix Aries running Windows ME with zero problems. And the Aries was designed as an embedded Linux server appliance - y'know, not designed to run Windows in the first place.

Yes, but the CDMA/LTE models are still overpriced compared to the $350 unlocked GSM model, so I /can't/ just go out and buy the Nexus already.

One reason modems still exist is for backup applications. We have a dialup backup modem (connected to our Cyberguard VPN gateway AFAIK) for our store's POS systems for credit card processing if the high-speed links go down. And that's why there's a serial cable ;)

I'm honestly very, very confused how to use this commenting system. It feels so kludgy browsing comments :|

@Philip.J.Fry: No, it's Windows CE, to further oppress those in the hermit kingdom.
