Joe's Random Ramblings

I just got an email from a friend recalling his experience with a Dell customer representative when he ordered a Netbook from Dell. Here is the exchange (printed with my friend's permission.) It is hilarious:

He: "For what purposes do you plan to use this laptop?"
Me: "For school. I am a university student."
He: "There's only one problem with this system you are ordering".
Me: "What?"
He: "It comes with Ubuntu Linux. It doesn't have XP or Vista or anything."
Me: "That's perfect."
He (puzzled): "That's perfect? You cannot use it for school!"
Me: "I study Computer Science."
Then he shut up.
