Hey what happened to all the tech geeks, didn't they encounter any other Noobs, frankly just wanted to wake this thread, sleeping since a month.
 
Yeah we should keep this tread alive but as my heath condition was not

well off late, I was out of TE for quite a long time. I want to

inform All my TEMembers/ friends through this thread that, as I have suffered from a

Severe BP Stroke on last 16th July, 2012. Though I got my life back

after months of Life Support inside GNRC[Guwahati Neurological

Research Center] ICU, my left hand was partiallydisabled! After

Lots of NaturoTherapies and Physiotherapies, I got improved 80%.

Recently my condition went to a very critical stage called Post-

Stroke-Epilaptic-which may occure to patatients with accidental head

injuries too! and I was experiencing some kinds of Seizure too! but

the good news is hat,-I am quite stable now after emergency medical

care taken by my Neurologist along with my uncle[Father's younger

brother] who is a medicine Proffessor on a medical college and my last

CT-Scan Result showed significant improvement! Let's come back to the

main stream ;)
One fine morning I got a call from , ITBP[Indo-Tibetan Border Police]

office as I was in AMC[Annual Maintenance Contract] as follows

:"sirey, jaldi se office aa jana.... hamari account brance aur Polnet

office ki computer me kuch akshar-ukshar nahi aa rahi hai...."[sir

please come soon to fix our computers in Polnet office[wireless

communication office] and account branch, Nothing is being displayed]
So, taking account of their urgency I reach there as early as I could

and found that, both of the computer's Monitors were switched off!

Lol! most of them do it like a 'TV set switching off'

So our group was working on Android app development training. At one step, the instructor asked to click the "Browse" button in order to select the project. The guy beside me asks "We are not connected to wifi, then how can we browse ?".
Imagine that this guy is in IT branch in 4th year.
 
The most idiotic thing that I see any noob IT 'engineer' doing is right click on the desktop and click refresh, and do this like 3 -4 times.
and when asked for a reason the answer is most hilarious "It makes the computer faster""Saari Kachra applications bandh ho jaati hain"

Nothing beats what my classmate tried to do.

While i browsed the wallpaper folder, trying to select a nice one to change the current.. This fellow comes with full confidence, selects a thumbnail, and then drags and drops it onto the desktop area. (CS Engg, 1st year, and he had a comp at his place.)

Perhaps he must have wanted the miniature version of Desktop Wallpaper :P

iPods = Portable music players
Walkmans = Portable Cassette players
Xerox = Photo Copy
FeDex - Courier

Many cases where the company or brand name over-shadowed the generic name.
 
In that sense, there's VIP (= suitcase), Godrej (= almirah), Colgate (=toothpaste), Google etc.
Xerox and walkman are the most widely used, IMO.
