A computer prank for totally clueless users

Things just being disconnected from the computer of a totally clueless user is enough to have them go into a frenzy that their computer is 'broken'.

So a quick trick to do is to just start unplugging things like the mouse or keyboard. Another of my favorites, a really easy trick is, on their monitor, to just turn up the brightness all the way up and the contrast all the way down.

When they turn their computer on, they will hear it working... I mean they will hear noises but their screen will appear blank.

I'll give you another computer prank for clueless users, because this is a trick only for people that hardly know how their computers work. For experienced users, this trick is pretty lame. So here it is, all you need to do is change the screen saver to display whatever words you want. All you need to do is go to the Screen Saver settings and select "marquee", type what message you want and when the screen saver is activated, those words of yours will be flying on the screen.

So there you have it!

This was fun. Love your site!
