I agree too, (have been in the computer business for about 40 years).
Fake but accurate? Shades of Gunga Dan!
This so openly phony, worse than the phony Obama birth certificate.
You need to be educated about this. You have fallen for the media induced fable that Bush 41 was "out of touch". Bush 41 was being shown a reader that could read TORN bar codes. He was completely familiar with bar code readers. In fact, that's why he was even shown the new technology for reading torn bar codes.
Has anyone referenced the significance of the date June 13, 2011 relative to anything?
Final testing before shipment from the manufacturer gets most of the infant mortality end of the "bath tub" curve, and those shipped are very, very stable.
To have, as we are told, six similar "crashes" is statistically not possible.
Oh, first computer - IBM 650 (bi-quinary) with mercury-delay lines (think big shift register) and drum storage, circa late 1950s.
CURLY: Calling all cars; calling all cars ... be on the lookout for three men. They ain't in here!!
BAD GUY: Oh, I wonder where they are?
I work for a verrrry small, 6-person consulting firm. We’re also not exactly the most tech-savvy operation.
I’ve had various computer crashes and problems, including a notebook stolen in a car breakin, over the years.
Never lost a single email. Lost quite a bit of other stuff, but never email. I’m not even sure what I’d have to do to lose email.
Resetting the server clock would cause all kinds of problems including accessing the domain servers which I assume the Exchange server wasn’t - that is not a recommended configuration. That it turn would mean logins to the Exchange server would fail.
A significant time differential on a LAN causes connection failures. That very problem has come up here with FReepers asking for assistance as to why computers could not connect with each other, the solution simply being to check/update the date/times.
I believe the workstation clock would not come into play at all with MS Exchange.
If the email (notifying of the hard drive “failure”) recipients were internal, which I assume they were, then the situation is vastly simpler because there would be no other mail server involved.
I wouldn’t know how to do it off the top of my head, but there are a number of low-level tools for working with MS Exchange and do believe that the timestamps could be edited and doubt that regardless of whether or not it would work, there would be any other way to accomplish back-dating, including resetting computer clocks.
“Has anyone referenced the significance of the date June 13, 2011 relative to anything?”
Yeah, my first thought also....
“I believe the workstation clock would not come into play at all with MS Exchange”
I have shown a friend once that he can change the apparent dates on Outlook Express by changing the computer PC date.
The email arrived with the changed date. However, when you used the “view source” feature in Outlook Express, the real transmission/receipt dates/times from the servers involved were correct.
I have MS Exchange. I’ll try resetting my pc clock and sending and email and see what pops up.
I suspect everybody knows, except maybe people who have never worked at an organization with more than 5 people, that the government is lying about this.
If a high level executive does have a computer problem, the first thing that IT would do is arrive at her work place with a substitute, and the exec would be up and running with no one having any need to know that a computer problem ever existed. I call bullshit.
Concur. This revelation smacks of manufacturing an alibi.
The supposed e-mails included in the document are nothing but printouts, and there’s no metadata associated with them. They could have originated anywhere.
If there was a Blackberry involved then the is another set of servers involved that also contain the emails. The entire thing is BS. the actual IT people involved need to be questioned by someone other than those in the IRS. I don't know but maybe someone interested in the facts.

That story, btw, was a dishonest slander against Bush.
When you are on a VIP tour, you will get shown whatever is new and exciting in the facility you are visiting. You are expected to be a good guest. If you are visiting an elementary school, you will ooh and aaah about the whiteboard in the fourth grade classroom. If you are visiting a plant floor, you will be impressed at the new press. If you are visiting a farm, you will be blown away by the GPS, precision planting, and field maps. Etc., etc., etc. And if you are brighter than a cabbage and have an interest in how the world is getting better every day in a million and one little ways, you may even find these things genuinely interesting. I do. It is fascinating how people are finding creative ways to do things better.
Anyhow, Bush was touring a grocery, and they showed him what was new. He admired it, as he was supposed to. The scanner in question was in fact an advancement; it could scan around curves and handle a considerable amount of damage on bar codes, so it was actually a pretty nifty piece of equipment.
The backstory of the "Bush is a doofus" party line slam is that EVERY person on the trip, including all the pool reporters, understood what was going on. And I'll suspect that most of them probably found it tolerably interesting, if they had any intellectual curiosity at all. The anti-Bush story was not written by one of the pool reporters. It was written by someone back in DC who received the pool report, thought he saw an angle for ridicule, and fabricated a hit piece. Shabby journalism, but it fit the political needs of the MSM, so it became a big story.
I’m calling “Cover-Up”. We know she had a Blackberry, so she was never without email.
