"IF YOU THINK YOUR DUMB ABOUT COMPUTERS READ THIS YOU'LL FEEL BETTER" Take heart,anyone amoung you who believes he or she is technologically challenged,"ain't seen nuthing" yet.This is an excerpt from a Wall street journal articale: 1.Compaq is considering changing the command"PRESS ANY KEY" to"Press Return Key" because of the flood of calls asking where the "ANY" KEY is. 2.AST technical support had a caller complaining that her mouse was hard to control with the dust cover on. The coverturned out to be the plastic bag the mouse was packaged in. 3. Another Dell customer called to say he couldn't get his computer to fax anything. After 40 minutes of troubleshooting, the technician discovered the man was trying to fax a piece of paper by holding it in front of the moniter screen and hitting the "SEND KEY". 4. 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". 5. And last but not least: TECH SUPPORT: "Ok 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!"
