Look at your profile page, between your name and the "About Jörgen Andersson" tab, you can see what the at-name for your account is. The space becomes an underscore, and the ö becomes o.
What is this talk of release? I do not release software. My software escapes leaving a bloody trail of designers and quality assurance people in its wake.

He did, and with this new more personal dimension to it, makes it much more interesting.

It's true that you are close to be a millionaire, but your Bob featured laptop sleeve is even closer! You have 46% of the votes and only 1 day left!!! Congratulations... 
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

Dear Mr. Griff,
In lieu of your impending score on CodeProject surpassing the 1 million mark, which is a first for CP you have won an all expense trip to the Democratic Republic of the Congo or $50 whichever is greater. Congratulations on your impending feat and your tickets may be picked up at a sheep farm closest to you.
Congratulations again,
The staff

I hear database used for a table.

I have tried to educate her to use the proper name for a 'USB memory stick' or 'USB flash drive' but gave up when she insisted on calling it a zip drive.

You should be able to find one[^] for $1 at a yard sale, and show her the difference. 
Have added the two e's added one earlier and tested the link on edit page it worked. Then they say it doesn't. Then OG said two places. Well try again.

Linky no worky.
It's a known problem: if you paste a link onto a highlighted word or phrase the ling can get shortened when it is "linkified" and it stops working. PITA.

You need to add the "e" to both links:
You should be able to find <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zip_driv">one</a>[<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zip_drive" target="_blank" title="New Window">^</a>] for $1 at a yard sale, and show her the difference.

"screenshot" - they had taken a picture of their screen.

I have actually had to do this, when troubleshooting problems with an Android-based treadmill. Androids may have screenshot capability (in the more usual sense), but it is certainly not accessible while locked in to a hardware-dedicated application, nor would there have been an easy way to get a 'real' screenshot to the support tech.

One of my absolute favorites to this day is still:
"I need faster internet or something, my computer keeps freezing on me."
While they're not even online. They are under the impression that an internet connection determines how their computer runs, whether it involves the internet or not. What about when most people had dial-up? Did their computers only work when the phone line was free and they could connect?
I also enjoy the confusion between memory and hard drive space. I hear that frequently.

I'm sure that was funny in context... but in reality, everything is starting to run from the internet, and it really is the slowest communication point between all the connections in a computer. This nonsense will become more logical as time marches on.
