This will probably give the more computer literate amongst you a giggle.

Myself, I don't know whether to laugh at or feel sorry for this guy...

Link.


The (really rather helpful!) page he was seeing.

The complete transcript between him and CentOS.

Well, after reading the transcript, and the very mixed replies, I still can't find it to feel sorry for the guy. If he'd taken the time to read the page he was getting instead of the site he was wanting, he'd have saved himself a lot of public humiliation. Of course, that's always the best kind, if you're not the target.

I think he's over worked. Kinda reminds me of my dad. I guess the part of me that looks beyond the "what" and tries to guess the "why" does feel sorry for him. But i've been wrong before.

Good one! I am still laughing at the whole transcript. I feel a little sorry for the guy embarassing himself like that but on the other hand he could have looked up the term 'operating system' at some point!

The sad thing is he doesn't realize he's been embarrassed! He still thinks the problem is with the guy at CentOS not answering him properly...

Tuttle... a small town not too far southwest of Ok City. May have an inferiority issues, and the home of someone who may have the job as City Manager because few others want it... and 22 years experience in IT doesn't always mean a lot. If I changed backup tapes for 22 years, I could claim the same thing...
