1 If you have reached the point where you really understand your computer, it's probably obsolete.

2 When you are computing, if someone is watching, whatever happens, behave as though you meant it to happen.

3 When the going gets tough, upgrade your computer.

4 The first place to look for information is in the section of the manual where you'd least expect to find it.

5 For every action, there is an equal and opposite malfunction.

6 To err is human ... to blame your computer for your mistakes is even more human, its downright natural.

7 He who laughs last, probably has a back-up.

8 The number one cause of computer problems is computer solutions.

9 A complex system that doesn't work is invariably found to have evolved from a simpler system that worked just fine.

10 A computer program will always do what you tell it to do, but rarely what you want it to do.

Number 5 is so true
