I don’t think I have the mental or emotional fortitude to deal with this.
EMAIL FROM CO-WORKER: I think I’m gonna have to have you walk me through the download from my computer to my lab top. I put the cord into the lab top but nothing happened. Call me after work on my cell phone at (###) ###-#### when you get a chance.
I hardly know where to start. The fact that she wants me to call her at home after work to help with her personal computer, the fact that I’m pretty sure she’s trying to transfer programs and files from one computer to the other by connecting them with an ethernet cord, or THE FACT SHE DOESN’T KNOW HOW TO SPELL “LAPTOP”!!!

Everytime someone says lab top, God kills a kitten.
If I find out you’ve been putting things on top of your labrador again, I swear I’ll unleash the wrath of PETA upon your ass.
Typical geek… she’s into you… THATS why she wants you to call her cell after work 🙂
I wouldn’t even consider a girl who said “lab top”. It’s up there with having to explain what an internet browser is and trying to use a mouse by holding it up in the air

Not sure what’s wrong with this unless the OS you’re using doesn’t support this method. Windows 7 (and Vista, too, I believe), allows you to transfer files with a regular RJ45 direct connection.
XP and 2000 work fine for this as well. NT4, 9x and ME are unsupported.
Is she hot? Then everything else is irrelevant. 😉
