    Tech  support:   What kind of computer do you  have?
    Customer:   A  white  one...
    Tech  support:    Click  on the 'my  computer' icon on to the left of the  screen.
    Customer:    Your left or my  left?
    ****************************
     
     
    Customer:   Hi, good afternoon, this  is Martha, I can't print. Every time I try, it  says 'Can't find  printer'.  I've even  lifted the printer and placed it in front of the  monitor, but the computer still says he can't  find it..
    ****************************
     
     
    Tech  support:   What's on your monitor  now, ma'am?
    Customer:   A teddy bear my  boyfriend bought for me at the 7-11.
    ****************************
    Customer: My keyboard  is not  working anymore.
    Tech  support: Are you sure it's plugged into  the computer?
    Customer: No. I can't  get behind  the computer.
    Tech  support:   Pick up your keyboard  and walk 10 paces back.
    Customer: !   OK
    Tech support: Did the  keyboard come  with you?
    Customer:  Yes
    Tech support: That means the keyboard   is not plugged in.
    ****************************
    Customer: I can't get on the  Internet.
    Tech support: 
      Are you sure you used  the right password?
    Customer: Yes, I'm sure. I saw my  colleague do it.

    Customer: Five dots.
    ****************************
    Tech  support:   What  anti-virus  program do you use?
    Customer: Netscape.

    ****************************
    Customer:    I have a huge  problem. A friend has placed a screen saver on  my computer, but every time I move the mouse, it  disappears.
    ****************************
    Tech support:   How may I help  you?
    Customer: I'm writing my first  email.
    Tech support:   OK, and what seems to be  the problem?
    Customer: Well, I have the letter 'a' in  the address, but how do I get the little circle  around it?
    **************************** 
    This one and the next are our personal  favorites!
    A woman customer called the Canon  help desk with a problem with her  printer.
    Tech support: Are you running it under  windows?
    Customer: '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 printer is working fine.'
    ****************************
    And last but not least!
    Tech  support: 'Okay Bob, let's  press the  control and escape keys at the same 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!
