This will prove my nerd status
There's a Staple commercial right now that really chaps my "techie" cheeks. I'm sure you've seen it. There's a guy freaking out because the Dell printer is out of ink. He's going on and on about "Cancel the meeting, We'll work through lunch" blah blah blah. The other two workers look at each other and press the "Easy" button and a Staples employee appears and hands her some ink. The "freakin out guy" stops freakin' out and calms down. There's only one problem. The printer that's out of "ink" is a laser printer. It uses toner. The "ink" the Staples genius hands her is ink-jet ink. Needless to say, it won't work in the printer he's trying to use. I guess handing her a box the size of a loaf of bread didn't make good television. The message I got from the commercial is "Come to Staples and we'll sell you stuff that won't work with your equipment."

I love it! I've never noticed that before - but now I can't wait to see the commercial again.
