susandennisA couple of weeks ago I got the wireless card to connect me to the internet in a nearby coffee shop. I got excellent reception and could surf with ease as well as handle email chores on my IPAQ. Today our two IT guys (who are really fun and very bright) carried their laptops down there to try it out themselves. They called me about 30 minutes later and started asking questions. So I trotted over. They were all hunched over their laptops - with an instructions sheet! I really laughed at them. I fired up the IPAQ and, sure enough, no go. While they were changing settings and tweaking this and that, I went up to the barista and said 'your network up?' and he said 'not really... we're having DSL problems'...
I told them both this afternoon that I will honestly not be rubbing their noses in this misadventure forever. For probably 50 years or so but not forever.
