okay, we were doing an intranet site for a client, nice guy and all, he wanted us to insert a paragraph of text...
'sure, can you email it to us?'
'no problem!'
the next day we get a 650KB email. he had scanned a fax of one paragraph of text at 300dpi and sent it uncompressed as an attachment.
marvellous. and it was still mostly illegible, being a crappy fax...
we had to laugh.
