[QUOTE="Ryujin, post: 6752496, member: 27897"] A few of mine: A subordinate was complaining that a computer he had on his bench for repair stank. I thought that he was talking about the usual fried chip smell of a blown power supply until he cracked the box and I saw the sandwich bag, that had been sitting inside the case since its assembly a year prior. I got a tech support call from a user who stated that the coffee holder on her computer had stopped working. Wait for it...... I had a university professor place a high priority call, because his computer was dead. Upon attending the site I switched on his power bar. Back in the days of DOS 4.01 I had a client call and state that while installing DOS from 1.2 Meg floppy, on her 120 Meg hard drive, she had run out of space. Upon further questioning I determined that she had run out of space in the floppy drive, after inserting the second disk, and could not insert the third. Technically she was correct in that the on-screen instructions never specified removing the first disk, prior to inserting the second. [/QUOTE]
