COMPUTER TROUBLE!!!

I was having trouble with my computer. So I called Eric, the 11 year old
next door, whose bedroom looks like Mission Control and asked him to come
over. Eric clicked a couple of buttons and solved the problem. As he was
walking away, I called after him, “So, what was wrong?”

He replied, “It was an ID ten T error.”

I didn’t want to appear stupid, but nonetheless inquired, “An, ID ten T
error? What’s that? In case I need to fix it again.”

Eric grinned…. “Haven’t you ever heard of an ID ten T error
before?”

“No,” I replied.

“Write it down,” he said, “and I think you’ll figure it
out.”

So I wrote down: I D 1 0 T.

I used to like Eric.
