Tech Support Fun
- A woman called the Canon help desk with a problem with her
printer. The tech asked her if she was "running it under
Windows." The woman then responded, "No, my desk is next to the
door. But that is a good point. The man sitting in the cubicle
next to me is under a window, and his is working fine."
- Tech Support : "How much free space do you have on your hard
drive?"
Customer : "Well, my wife likes to get up there on that
Internet, and she downloaded ten hours of free
space. Is that enough?"
- Overheard in a computer shop
Customer : "I'd like a mouse mat, please."
Salesperson : "Certainly sir, we've got a large variety."
Customer : "But will they be compatible with my computer?"
- Customer : "Can you copy the Internet for me on this
diskette?"
- Customer : "So that'll get me connected to the Internet,
right?"
Tech Support : "Yeah."
Customer : "And that's the latest version of the Internet,
right?"
Tech Support : "Uhh...uh...uh...yeah."
- Customer : "My computer crashed!"
Tech Support : "It crashed?"
Customer : "Yeah, it won't let me play my game."
Tech Support : "Alright, hit Control-Alt-Delete to reboot."
Customer : "No, it didn't crash -- it crashed."
Tech Support : "Huh?"
Customer : "I crashed my game. That's what I said before.
Now it doesn't work."
Turned out, the user was playing Lunar Lander and crashed his
spaceship.
Tech Support : "Click on 'File,' then 'New Game.'"
Customer : [pause] "Wow! How'd you learn how to do that?"
