try doing in front of about 50 engineers with a new minicomputer, I forgot to remove the second cartridge tape (no os). Only discovered it after about 30min. scsijon At 04:46 PM 11/10/2004, Patrick Shanahan wrote:

Gives one a somewhat sheepish feeling <grin>, which I am sure nearly everyone has experienced at one time or another. At least those who utilized a computer before they stopped installing floppy drives.
You could have a similar experience back before hard drives from the opposite condition, a missing floppy.
I remember my wife's friend asking me to find a windoz 3 icon she had lost, was *behind* another icon. And the user who's monitor failed, had not turned it on (didn't usually turn it off).
gud day,
