My computer makes me so frustrated that I feel like...
 
... Throwing it off my roof.
...Running it over with a bulldozer.
...Giving it a bath in the bathtub or perhaps the exercise pool.
...Taking it to Doggie Doo Run Run so that the dogs can use it as their new favorite place to pee.
...Taking it to a gun range for a new target.
...Hitting it with a sledgehammer.
...Seeing it if it will make more of impression on the traintracks than a penny.
...Drowning it off the docks at Lake Sumter Landing beside the half sunken boats.
...Using it as a speed bump for your new vintage golf cart.
...Dragging it behind your car along US 441/27.
...Feeding it to a pack of ravenous billy goats.
...Tossing it from your plane from Leesburg International Airport.
...Putting it on the Villages highest roof as a lightning rod.
...Marinating it in fish kill and tossing it off a boat near New Smyrna Beach, Florida.
...Replacing a golf cart path stanchion with your computer on Morse Circle.
...Drenching it with sugar water and throwing it on the Villages' largest red ant hill.
...Letting my nine year old grandkid take it apart to see how it works.
...Tossing it into the Villages' newest sinkhole.

Garbage in, garbage out.

Without some knowlege and effort on the part of the user to understand how a compter functions, it will always fail to meet your expectations. It is not a appliance.

...mousepad. Which advertises for EMBARQ Advanced Computer Support. I think the frustration also intensifies though with the number of people using the computer as well.

EMBARQ mousepad though had none of these that pertainied to life in FL or here in TV.
