The true definition of junk

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

I was just going through a stack of old manuals to see which ones I could safely throw away when I discovered something that is truly the most useless thing I’ve seen in 5 years of working here. An install disk for AOL version 1.5. (circa 1992, I think) It’s the PC version though, if you want that new-fangled “Windows” version you have to call the 800 number on the package. *L*

I think I’ll take it home and frame it, what do you think? I wonder if I could sell it on Ebay as an antique?

    Thanks go out to Shannon who had the answer to my IE title bar question. As soon as I read the solution I thought to myself, “Group Policy Editor! I knew there was a simple place to set that!” Thanks Shannon! Follow these topics: Uncategorized
