AI Analysis

Comic Strip Title: "Optical Disk File Server"

Summary:

The comic strip revolves around Dilbert's conversation with a woman about an optical disk file server. The exchange begins with Dilbert's inquiry about the server, prompting the woman to respond with a statement about falling asleep. Dilbert, intrigued, asks her how she died, and she reveals that she was discussing an optical disk. The punchline is delivered by a police officer, who enters the scene and exclaims, "Zzzz..." as he investigates the woman's death. The humor lies in the unexpected twist on the phrase "talking in her sleep," which is typically associated with a person speaking while asleep, but in this case, it's a literal interpretation of the woman discussing an optical disk.
