Dave Barry Computer Quotations

The Internet: transforming society and shaping the future through chat.

Megahertz: This is really, really big hertz.

Hardware: This is the part of the computer that stops working when you spill beer on it.

And, of course, you have the commercials where savvy businesspeople get ahead by using their MacIntosh computers to create the ultimate American business product: a really sharp-looking report.

USER, n.: The word computer professionals use when they mean 'idiot.'

The Internet browser... is the piece of software that puts a message on your computer screen informing you that the Internet is currently busy and you should try again later.
