techno

I remember 20 years ago or so, the word 'Techno' was used more similarly to the way the word 'Electronica' is used now.

Over time, 'electronica' has seemingly assumed its position at the top of the tree, and 'techno' has sort of un-evolved into a less broad, or more specific term.
"In the 80's we called it techno; now we call it electronica."

The friend you have that runs 4 antivirus programs, 10 different freeware anti-malware packages and is running zone alarm, norton internet security AND the windows firewall at the same time? The same guy who insists that defraging his hard drive every weekend makes surfing the internet faster?

Yeah, him.

{Call to software company}
Customer: I installed your {program}, and now the geek squad is telling me I need a new hard drive!

Agent: Sir, I apologize, but I'm afraid that there's no way our {innocuous application} could physically damage your hard drive.

Customer: Oh yeah!? Well GOOGLE says your program destroys thousands of computers every year!

Agent: I am not one to question the Google sir, but I am telling you; it's not possible.

Customer: Then explain why GOOGLE has 40,000 results when I search for "{software name} destroyed my computer"!!
Agent: PEBKAC?

Techno-crunch

The cringe like feeling during the period of time when you are debating on whether to buy technology and find yourself trying to find the cheapest deal available, even if you cannot really afford it.
Mike: I had to wait a month for my G3 phone to be returned from HTC, while it was under the 12 month warranty.

You: Did they charge you?

Mike: Can you believe it? They charged me $39.00 for returning my $#!%.

You: At least it wasn't the $100.00 deductible by Asurion. It seems like everyone's feeling the techno-crunch post 9/11.
