Broom Hilda by Russell Myers for June 30, 2020

That an iZucchini?

You have to sign up for a replacement plan for when the computer becomes obsolete. (Like when you take it out of the box!) No, wait, that’s more of a smartphone thing!

You mean you can’t use your zap powers to repair it?

Broom has really a special gift with electronic.

I think it’s a Banananana 9000. There was a strip (not this one) where the kid that owned one hacked the Pentagon.

Harry Dresden frequently has this issue, but with other people’s computers. He won’t own one.

Well she is 1500 years old – she may remember back when you had to go to these places, with people in them that had things like computers on shelves. Then you could trade money for one of the computers on the shelves. I don’t remember what those were called …

These new banana laptops do that sometimes. Go back to your old Thinkpad 32bit it is safer. Ha ha.
