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.

may I suggest you learn basic grammar and the difference between 'hear' and 'here' before we 'here' any more of your pointless comments

"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.

I agree, I hadn't thought about the lack of relevance nowadays. But it still irks me a bit I hear it. Especially when someone has an older computer and a slower DSL connection, and 90% of the tasks they perform involve no sort of internet connectivity.

"Nonsense more logical" or "logical nonsense"? Either way, its an oxymoran.

People misuse "bandwidth" all the time. They confuse real bandwidth with the data transfer rate.
In engineering, bandwidth refers to the range of frequencies contained in a given band.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Drawing a distinction between those terms may be technically correct (i.e. analog's bandwidth vs digital's data transfer rate), but I see the terms being used interchangeably much more often than not. Actually, I just now scanned a few "Intel white papers" the older ones tend to use the terms interchangeably, at least one new paper avoids either term and uses "frequency" to imply either depending on whether they're discussing the analog or digital side of the chip. I'll pay more attention in the future. Maybe it comes down to where the authors were educated?

We have a guy at my job that wants to pull data to the website from excel sheets. The problem though is that he actually means that.

So let him do it.
We don't get enough code in "The Weird and the Wonderful" as it is these days!

He's not a programmer, he's one of those people that tells the programmers what to do, and how to do it.
He's also good with buzzwords, and even if he doesn't always understand them it sounds good to the boss.

So teach him some new buzzwords and let his boss look them up rather than admit he doesn't know them...:EvilGrinSmiley:

Now you just create a "Excel Uploader" program that uses Excel Interop, and quietly make a CSV and uploads that instead.
I actually had to use a website that was too complicated for the end user, so I used a WebX and auto-filled everything it could detect. Unfortunately file open dialogs can't be filled in programatically, so I used SendKeys.Send() on a Timer for that.
