Humor Relating to Technology

Being a computer programmer myself (mostly GIS-related work), I can appreciate all of the technology -related stuff that I've received over the years. I am also a major Star Trek addict (and have been for many years). Since you can't have Star Trek without the technology, I've put my (tiny) Star Trek humour collection in here.
