Empty recycle bin!

Once upon a time there was a brand new computer, it sat on the shelf of a very big shop, just waiting for someone to buy it… day after day people looked at the computer and moved on, and the computer began to wonder why no one was buying it…...

.... and then one wonderful sunny morning a lady come into the shop and stood and looked at the computer, after a few moments, one of the assistants came over and asked if she wanted any help. " Oh yes please, I think I would like to buy that computer, it looks just what I need ".

The computer was very pleased and soon found itself installed in the study of the ladies house… After a few months of use the computer was getting a bit slow and the lady couldn't understand why, she was doing the same things day in and day out.

But the computer got slower and slower until she was about to despair of it - but then a friend called who knew all about computers...... and so the lady asked him to have a look at her computer and see if he could sort it out…. The friend looked and found that the lady had never, in all the time she had owned the computer, never ever emptied the recycle bin, or done any of the uncluttering work needed to keep it running well…

So her friend set too and helped her to do the necessary work so that her hard drive, could now work efficiently once again…. She had stored everything she had ever done on it, and it was just too much for the little computer to take -

Affter she had had the uncluttering work done, the computer worked so well again that she promised she would never allow all that rubbish to stay in side any longer... she would regularly empty her recycle bin….
The computer is still working well today, even though this was a long time ago, it is working well because the lady had learnt to keep it cleaned up and rubbish free…
