Here's one from another board:

After the fall of the USSR, a Polish bishop and an Italian bishop were talking about the state of the Catholic church in Poland. "The government has given back many of our churches," said the Polish bishop, "but they're almost unusable. They've smashed all our windows and stolen all the icons."

The Italian bishop responded: "No windows and no icons... do you just say Mass at the DOS prompt?"

If you get any particularly gullible computer users at work, and they are having computer problems, then tell them this useful tip....

... tell them to make sure all their computer cables are as straight as possible.

The reason is simple.

Computers comunicate using binary data. Binary is made up of noughts and ones.

When a cable is too bent, often the 0s can get through OK, they have nice rounded edges. But the 1s have sharp edges and can often get stuck in tight bends, causing loss of data.

These are probably spoofed a little (maybe), but that last box makes me laugh. My MacBook has been up and running for over two weeks now.
