    Memo from the IT department - I received this in my mailbox this AM

    Hi all, just for a laugh and probably been seen before (but not by me)
    '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''

    Memo from the IT Dept

    Dear all,

    There are a lot of changes that are going to be taking place
    across the board as far as the servers & personal computers go. The goal is to remove all laptop computers by December 2002 and all desktops computers by February 2003 as a part of the ongoing cost-cutting around the company.
    Instead, everyone will be provided with an Etch-A-Sketch.
    There are many sound reasons for doing this:

    1. No boot-up problems
    2. No technical glitches keeping work from being done.
    3. No more wasted time reading and writing emails.
    4. No more worries about power cuts.
    5. Budget savings on Upgrades unparalleled

    Frequently Asked Questions from the Etch-A-Sketch Help Desk:

    Q: My Etch-A-Sketch has all of these funny little lines all over
    the screen.
    A: Pick it up and shake it.

    Q: How do I turn my Etch-A-Sketch off?
    A: Pick it up and shake it.

    Q: What's the shortcut for Undo?
    A: Pick it up and shake it.

    Q: How do I create a New Document window?
    A: Pick it up and shake it.

    Q: How do I set the background and foreground to the same
    colour?
    A: Pick it up and shake it.

    Q: What is the proper procedure for rebooting my Etch-A-Sketch?
    A: Pick it up and shake it.

    Q: How do I delete a document on my Etch-A-Sketch?
    A: Pick it up and shake it.

    Q: How do I save my Etch-A-Sketch document?
    A: Don't shake it.

    If you have any further queries, please feel free to contact the
    IT
    department.

    No longer a Flashkit mod, not even by stealth

    Insanity is just a point of view. After all, the world looks pretty normal through your own underpants.

    I sent this one around my old office ages ago and I fear it was actually not completely understood by some of the people I sent it to

    Reminds me of the Dilbert comic where they buy the boss an etch-a-sketch.
