    There have been many tales of this before, but the fact that it's under 'frequently asked questions' baffles me.

    Oh trust me, there are more stupid people than that.....

    I can't be bothered to find the site I found all of these on but some of the more memorable ones were:

    Can you put the internet onto this disk for me?

    (tech support call) Hello? Is this the internet?

    (tech support call) I'm having trouble installing microsoft word.
    O.k, can you tell me what is written on the disk in your drive?
    "Windows 3.1 install disk"
    Do you have the Microsoft Word disk there?
    Um... no.....

    I'll post more when I can be bothered to find them.

    My, haven't we come a long way since then?

    Honestly, I can't understand how some of these people have the intelligence to dress themselves, never mind use computers.

    Yeah how did that simpsons go?

    *Homer studies the computer screen*
    "Hmm.. press any key to continue..."
    "Where's the any key?!"
    "All this work is making me thirsty! I'll add it to my tab."
    *Homer presses tab button and puts drink cup underneath*
    "Uh oh! No time for that now!"

    Best... episode... ever!


    I heard a technical support call where the customer wasn't getting power to her PC. After about 30 minutes of diagnosting her computer, the technical support guy asked her to take a look at her power cord to make sure it was plugged in. She said yes. He proceeded to ask her questions... Turns out she had plugged the surge protector power plug into itself for power. How about that for a brain buster eh? How dumb can you be when you start thinking you can fly if you yank your hair in an upward direction and other self-perpetuating laws?
