News You Can Bruise for 2000 June 13

Yesterday, my mother was having problems connecting her new scanner to her Windows machine. So of course she decided to call me for help. I begged her not to torment me in this fashion. "It's like you're asking me to fix your Macintosh. It's like you're asking me to repair your car. I can't do it." Fortunately, it was just a case of a missing DLL, so I managed to fix it over the phone in a mere hour.
