Windows Support
An unfailingly polite lady called to ask for help with a Windows installation that had gone terribly wrong.
Customer: "I brought my <a href="http://www.starzmart.com/" target="_blank"><b>wholesale supplier</b></a> Windows disks from work to install them on my home computer." (Training stresses that we are "not the Software Police," so I let the little act of piracy slide.)
Tech Support: "Umm-hmm. What happened?"
Customer: "As I put each disk in it turns out they weren't initialized."
Tech Support: "Do you remember the message <a href="http://www.starzmart.com/Android-Tablets" target="_blank"><b>google android tablet</b></a> exactly, ma'am?"
Customer: (proudly) "I wrote it down. 'This is not a Macintosh disk. Would you like to initialize it'?"
Tech Support: "Er, what happened next?" starzmart
Customer: "After they were initialized all the disks appeared to be blank. And now I brought them back to work, and I can't read them <a href="http://www.starzmart.com/eBook-Reader" target="_blank"><b>best ebook reader</b></a> in the A: drive; the PC wants to format them. And this is our only set of Windows disks for the whole office. Did I do something wrong?"
