863170 2010-03-02 21:08:00 Consider it ... umm ... what happened to that anyway? Agent_24 (57)
863171 2010-03-02 23:12:00 Sigh.
Another thing where you'd have to be pretty dim to do such a thing anyway.
Can't see me pressing anything even if I had Wainuitech standing behind me insisting I should..........

863173 2010-03-03 01:39:00 Despite the dimness involved in achieving this, I thought it was quite topical for those that frequent this forum.

As we all know, most people that use computers are none the wiser to most things to do with computers. Actually, they probably wouldn't even know what the F1 button usually does.
