What the hell is "tonnes"?
The Internet Printing Protocol is a wierd mash up of HTTP and a proprietary binary format. God knows what they were smoking when they dreamt it up.
They were eating rotisserie chicken.
Just to be sure, better go to a school that gives you a free car for each degree you earn.
Exactly - Microsoft puts a few on there, the OEM / vendor quite a few more, then everything they install is " [X] Create icon on my desktop".
Exactly what kind of laughter did you have in mind?
