A hillbilly was in jail serving 30 years for robbing banks. After serving about 12, he's notified that his Uncle Joe from Chicago has died and left him over $100,000.
The hillbilly was so happy when the warden gave him the news, that he made a promise to put the money in a trust fund until he was released. The warden asked him if there was anything he wanted to buy before tying up the money.
The hillbilly said he had read a lot about computers and wanted a PC. The warden agreed and got him a computer -- a brand new Compaq. After a few weeks, the warden visited him in his cell to see how he was doing. To his amazement, he saw the computer smashed on the floor.
The warden asked the hillbilly what happened and the prisoner said it didn't work properly and that it would not even complete the simplest of tasks.
The warden asked him what he wanted the computer to do, and the hillbilly said he just wanted one simple task, but the computer couldn't perform it.
The hillbilly said, "I hit the Escape key and nothing happened, I hit the key again and still nothing, I am still here. I think I'm going to sue Compaq."

Well Compaq was one of the computer manufacturers that actually made a keyboard with the famous "any key", so they aren't all bad. Hehehe :hehehe:

Hahaha Poly you kill me :D
My first PC was a Gateway 2000 back in 96, which oddly enough I had up until two years ago! Same motherboard and processor, power supply, floppy and monitor! I only updated the video, sound, and modem.
Now I have a PC that is ummm 2 years old and is so slow. I built it and funny as I still am using that same 17" Gateway 2000 monitor! That thing just keeps going and going hahah.
