Re: Computer related jokes
Bill Gates eventually arrives at the the day of judgement.
St. Peter greets him, and explains that while he did contribute a lot of money to charities, he also ripped a lot of people off when they were forced to pay for his software if they wanted to buy a piece of hardware from a store.
St. Peter says that under the circumstances, he will give Gates the choice of going to heaven or going to hell, and offers a tour. Gates accepts, and first St. peter takes him to heaven. In heaven, Gates sees a very serene place, with people discussing philosophy and walking together through a wooded landscape.
They then move on to hell. Gates sees a big beach party, with everyone fornicating, smoking cigarettes, eating gourmet food, and drinking.
When Gates is asked, he chooses to go to hell, and is immediately plunged into a firey furnace with the screams of tortured souls deafening him.
"Hey, St. Pete, what's all this?" screams Gates "Where's the beach party?".
"Oh, I only showed you the demo version." St.Peter replies.

Caller: “I need to report a very serious computer crime! The local university is running an illegal computer system!”
Me: “Could you please repeat that?”
Caller: “The local university is running an illegal computer system! They’ve hacked it!”
Me: “How could you tell they’d hacked it?”
Caller: “Well, when it booted, it didn’t say Windows or Microsoft or anything! It said something about Deviant Linux, I think, and the main screen looked nothing like my good, legal Windows screen at home! I think they hacked that, too!”
Me: “Do you mean Debian Linux?”
Caller: “Yes, that! Is it some sort of computer mafia or something?”
Me: “Uh, no, it’s just a different operating system. Nothing to worry about.”
Caller: “But it’s illegal! It’s not Microsoft, not even Windows! They’re on a normal Microsoft computer, so they’re breaking the law! I think they stole my identity when I came in the building! I’m calling the FBI!” *hangs up*
