Computer problem for elders

I was having trouble with my computer. So I called Timmy, the 11 year old next door whose bedroom looks like Mission Control, and asked him to come over.

Timmy 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.'

Timmy 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 the little shit.
