annoying computers

Maybe I 'm just a little mean on computers in my title, and should be complaining about the people associated with computers and who program them.

So I just got done having dinner with my friend only to fnd out about some of his latest escapades with computers. He paid a company very well to set up his entire office with computers, scanners, digital cams, office automation, and security. All running through his computer, and they didn't even tell him how to work it all. I mean usually companies who do that kind of set up pay their techs something like $70/hr... Is it just me or if you pay someone 70 an hour to do something you can expect them to tell you how to atleast use it? Maybe I'm just nuts. I mean that is a pretty complex system and he paid to have something that used to least ammount of brain power to use.

Then what is with these people who just have to have a computer even though they have no idea how to use them, or even what they do! For those of you who are maybe new or just didn't care: COMPUTERS MANIPULATE DATA!!!! and that is IT. So unless you have some data to manip then you really dont need a computer. There are much cheaper/portable/higher quality solutions out there.
