The place where a friend of mine works was going through the process of upgrading all of their computers. On one computer in particular, they had determined they needed more memory.
One of the senior partners got it into her head that they needed more "MEG." My friend tried to tell her that what they needed was RAM, but she insisted that the machine had plenty of RAM and that they needed more Meg -- specifically, about 512 megabytes of Meg.
He got tired of arguing with her and said to go down to the computer store and buy some Meg. She came back with an envelope
with RAM in it -- on the envelope was written "512 megabytes of Meg."
"The salesman tried to tell me the same thing you did," she told my friend, "but then he went and talked to his manager, and he set him
straight. Now go install this Meg."
