We keep the standards low so you don't have to.

+3 for smitty.

It is now called "xerographic process" in the large format world.

//also saw Xerox 9800 color copier in the 70's ( as a Doyle det. rent a cop)

I watched and learned and used the info that I aquired.

Just because you wear a cheap uniform and check your badges does not mean I am unaware.

Nice try. Take a look at the timestamps.

Dear Sirs:

RE: Raven7

Did anyone else count the number of farkers who didn't get the joke?

Raven- good for you, taking a grenade for the team.

I think it was more Raven's trying to fight a lost battle. By Fark standards, everyone was pretty nice to him. Warned him and everything. He kept going long after he should have gracefully said, "Ok, I didn't get it"

You don't bother arguing a point like that. He made it matter.

and i'm so glad... cause it was so funny...

well done, well done...

/+1 subby, and a big clap on the back.

In defense of TheRaven7, *ahem*,

Guy: "I cut my finger on a rubber band! Do you sell Band-aids?"
Randall: "Band-aid is a brand name. The proper term is adhesive strip."
Dante: "The man is bleeding to death and your getting into an argument about semantics."
Randall: "Man, brand name recognition is just one of the many subtle threats that are destroying this nation. It gives the larger, more well-known companies an unfair advantage. I'm doing my part to ween people from referring to generic products by brand names."
Guy: "So do you sell adhesive strips or not?"
Randall: "Nope."

Now, in offense to TheRaven7,
where's that picture of The Eagles sacking the bejeezus out of Boller? Ah there it is. Ahhh good times.

... oh I get it. You have to fail at the English language to get it, though, because last time I checked, Hoover didn't produce a product called the "Hoover machine". It's called a farking vacuum cleaner, which about 10 other companies manufacture.

I was wondering if anyone would bring that up

Can we all just say TheRaven7 when we mean, Shaka, when the walls fell? Or maybe Kiteo, his eyes closed?

hahah laughing my ass off!

Kick ass, submitter. Well done.

Impressed.

\I just want to tell you good luck. We're all counting on you.

Is this a FARK first? Well played indeed, subby.

Bravo!

best repeat ever.

Wiredroach, my account is taken from Accidental Empires by Robert Cringely (AKA Mark Stevens) who details Bill Gates being given a demo after orders from Xerox. Bill himself is adamant about that since he said Jobs was talking crap about MS copying the Lisa/Mac OS saying "I didn't steal it from you, we both stole it from PARC" (See http://inventors.about.com/library/weekly/aa043099.htm )

Of course Bill might have been lying...

If Jobs stole from PARC he himself screwed up in being adamant that LISA (his baby) did not have any network connection, one of the PARC developments, whereas Mackintosh (developed by a seperate team) did have.

They probably should have just shown Groundhog Day instead.

I am amused.

If you read that one, you also have to read Dealers of Lightning, too.

Xerox didn't so much as "fumble" the PC as they were simply ahead of their time-- back in the 70s, there literally was not a market for something like a PC. Desktop word processing was in its infancy, and companies like IBM and Wang (huh huh, I said "wang") pretty much had the market cornered.

Eventually Xerox did market a version of the Alto as the Star, which did OK in the late 70s/early 80s as a workstation. But by then IBM and the PC clones pretty much had the corporate market locked up.

Of course, they made their big $$$ off the laser printer patent, but I digress...

Absolute gold smitty

Bravo!
