The best one I like is:

"Access Denied, please contact your Administrator"

But I am the Administrator lol

The other good programmers error is "Should never get here". That goes back to assembly code days though.

Andi.

Technically that's two messages, it says to press a key to continue after any error message (floppy/keyboard/etc), but yes its pretty funny when the error displayed is the keyboard failure

my favourite was always:

Windows cannot find the driver for US Robotics 56k fax/data modem, would you like to search online for drivers?
