>User calls to complain that she can't get Excel installed on her computer. Having first hand Knowedge of the user and her PC, the first question asked, where did you get the Excel Disk that you are using. "Disk? I'm not using disk. I've got it on CD." OH, OK, Have you put the CD in the computer? sniker, sniker. Yes, I'm not stupid! Oh I'm not saying you are. Have you gotten a new computer in the last few days? sniker,sniker,sniker "NO and why are you laughing at me?" I'm real sorry but your computer has never had a CD on it, and since you said you had put it in the computer, the only place I can think of is in the 5 1/4 Drive, which is for floppies. Real Floppies.

Fun with Excel :) These are true too (and unfortunately hit me).
-OK where could you fit an AT style keyboard ? To BNC port :)
-Why would you travel 30 km to fix a hangup in your app ? For you didn't teach the customer that there was a key named [ENTER] :)

-And this is what I laugh most when I remember :
An MD customer was complaining about weirdnesses in her app that begun few days ago. I went there and found that it was a [keypress] virus.
"Well it's a virus and now cleaned." I said.
She replied screamingly :
"Oh my God, kid used the computer this morning and didn't wash his hands !"
