Mastering the Old Technology

on a lighter note. . . Some folks complain that technology is changing so fast that they can't keep up with it. What they don't realize is that technological problems have been with us for centuries. So—maybe it's time to back up to some, er, older technology and master that first with the help of the Medieval helpdesk. This You-Tube video makes it easier (well, if you read the subtitles): There, doesn't everything seem simpler now? Fast-forward to modern times for a bit of editing humor: Check out what the folks at Vanity Fair did to whip Sarah Palin's resignation speech "into publishable shape."
