Computer Consultants

The start of the new school term always brings out the most interesting questions for computer consultants on campus.

The predominant questions this term pertain to getting into E-mail and how to access the Information Highway.

An obviously distraught student came to the consulting office yesterday complaining that his E-mail wasn’t working.

His attempts to get tickets for an on-campus concert kept resulting in returned mail.

He showed me the mail address he was attempting to reach.

I asked him where he obtained such an unusual mail address.

He replied, “The sign advertising the concert said, ‘begins@7:30PM.’”
