Excuse me sir, you have an ID10T error.

When I was still doing tech support, we had some companies that are from some of the top companies and schools in the nation. I would suppose that would come with some of the top of the line administrators as well. Oh wait, that was the wrong assumption.

Me: Alright sir, it looks like where going to need SSH access.
Him: Whats SSH access?
Me: Sir are you the administrator?
Him: Yes, can someone walk me through how to set up SSH access?
Me: Sir, I will have one call you back, whats your public IP address?
Him: Whats that?
Me: **face palm**

I am seriously not making this up. I had so many calls that wound up this same way. There ARE Administrators out there that DO NOT know what their IP address is, or how to get it. They dont have a clue what SSH access is. Why oh why did I have to put up with stuff like that?

Intel what are you thinking?

Intel has done a great job with the i-Series processors. I have been pretty impressed with the power of the little guys, although I am still a big fan of AMD (shhhhhhhh!)

So why is Intel on my C list? That would because they are lacking on quality of their motherboards. Quality control is important. (Ok you cube dwellers know all too well how your boss is breathing down your neck). When you send in a bad Intel board, and you get a bad one back, that has a different serial number, something is lacking in the quality department.

When the bios wont even come up, then you know you have issues. So what the heck is Intel thinking? (More to come, as the story develops!)
