About; our bloggers

At some point everyone has thought or said “Stupid Computer” or felt that their computer is stupid. And it’s true, Computers are stupid. For myself, computers have been the center of my hobby world since I was 11, and the backbone of my work life going on over 32 years now.

I started this blog as an outlet for my experiences, and outlook on computers. Recently I have been inviting others to contribute to Computers Are Stupid.com as well. So every once in a while you may see an article from someone other than Chris Wagner.

Here is a little run-down of our current, yet growing author list. Thanks to every one who has graciously agreed to contribute!

Chris Wagner; Chief bottle washer:I started off working in a computer retail store when I was 13. I’ve since done many other jobs and have wound up working in two separate fields pretty much at the same time; Information Technology and Voice Acting.   As you might be able to deduce, I really love computers and am always excited about what they can do in addition to their untapped potential; which is really just our own untapped potiential.
