"Tech Support Questions" joke

These are actual calls to Tech support help desks (Some of you may find this funny while others could possibly use this section as a reference) 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?" --------------------------------------- I once received a fax with a note on the bottom to fax the document back to the sender when I was finished with it, because he needed to keep it. --------------------------------------- Customer: "Can you copy the Internet for me on this diskette?" --------------------------------------- I work for a local ISP. Frequently we receive phone calls that go something like this:Customer: "Hi. Is this the Internet?" --------------------------------------- Some people pay for their on-line services with checks made payable to "The Internet." --------------------------------------- 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." --------------------------------------- Tech Support: "Ok Bob, let's press the control and escape keys at thesame time. That brings up a task list in the middle of the screen.Now type the letter' P' to bring up the Program Manager." Customer: "I don't have a' P'." Tech Support: "On your keyboard, Bob." Customer: "What do you mean?" Tech Support: "'P' on your keyboard, Bob." Customer: "I'm not going to do that!" --------------------------------------- Customer: "My computer crashed!" Tech Support: "It crashed?" Customer: "Yeah, it won't let me play my game." Tech Support: "All right, 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?"
