Computer Joke(5)
An exasperated caller to Dell Computer Tech Support couldn‘t get her new Dell Computer to turn on. After ensuring the computer was plugged in,the technician asked her what happened when she pushed the power button. Her response,“I pushed and pushed on this foot pedal and nothing happens.”The“foot pedal”turned out to be the computer’s mouse.
Another customer called Compaq tech support to say her brand-new computer wouldn‘t work. She said she unpacked the unit,plugged it in and sat there for 20 minutes waiting for something to happen. When asked what happened when she pressed the power switch,she asked,“What power switch?”
Another IBM customer had troubles installing software and rang for support.“I put in the first disk,and that was OK. It said to put in the second disk,and I had some problems with the disk. When it said to put in the third disk,I couldn‘t even fit it in……”
The user hadn‘t realized that“Insert Disk 2”meant to remove Disk 1 first.
In a similar incident,a customer had followed the instructions for installing software. The instructions said to remove the disk from its cover and insert into the drive. The user had physically removed the casing of the disk and wondered why there were problems.
True story from a Novell NetWire Sysop:
Caller:“Hello,is this Tech Support?”
Tech:“Yes,it is. How may I help you?”
Caller:“The cup holder on my PC is broken and I am within my warranty period. How do I go about getting that fixed?”
Tech:“I‘m sorry,but did you say a cup holder?”
Caller:“Yes,it‘s attached to the front of my computer.”
Tech:“Please excuse me. If I seem a bit stumped,it‘s because I am. Did you receive this as part of a promotional at a trade show?How did you get this cup holder?Does it have any trademark on it?”
Caller:It came with my computer. I don‘t know anything about promotional. It just has’4X‘on it.“At this point,the Tech Rep had to mute the caller because he couldn’t stand it. He was laughing too hard. The caller had been using the load drawer of the CD-ROM drive as a cup holder and snapped it off the drive.
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 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 printer is working fine,”
Tech Support:“O.K. 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:“On your keyboard,Bob.”
Customer:“What do you mean?”
Tech:“‘P’on your keyboard,Bob.”
Customer:“I‘m not going to do that!”
