COMPUTER LOVE
A Noffice IT man who recently added a third computer monitor to his desktop believes that the impressive effect will almost certainly lead to his getting a girlfriend fairly soon.
Jeremy Caketin, who works in the IT department of Oakey, Catherall & Sulley Insurance Ltd in Croydon, added the third monitor to his desk after receiving authorisation from a manager who doesn’t really understand what he does.
sweet “It’s a pretty sweet rig, right?” Caketin told the Croydon Aneurism and Herald.
“The chicks are going to dig this, right here,” he continued. “Check out these guys with only two monitors, they think they’re it, the losers. Neil’s only got one monitor, the stupid virgin,” he added.
Caketin, 24, then threw a balled-up piece of paper in the direction of his colleague whislt calling him “a prick” which he later described as “IT banter”.

“Penny came down yesterday to get her passwords reset, and she was all like ‘Wow, you’ve got three monitors,’ and I was all like ‘yeah’,” he said. “We were doing some pretty serious vibing right there,” he added excitedly.
And Caketin is fairly confident that his NASA Mission Control-like array of screens will prove popular with most of the female staff in the office.

And in the unlikely event that having three monitors fails to get Mr Caketin a girlfriend, the tech nerd has a backup plan.
“I’ll probably add a fourth monitor,” he told reporters.
