    Tech Support hotlines are not easy work, you get calls from all sorts of idiotic users that apparently can't read a manual, or lack common sense. Here is a transcript of just one such case: Caller "Hello is this Packard Bell Tech support?" Tech "Yes how can I help you?" Caller "The cup holder on front of my computer broke off and it is still under warranty, how do I go about getting it fixed?" Tech "Excuse, you've stumped me. How did you get this cup holder, was it part of some promotion?" Caller "It came with the computer, I don't know of any promotion." Tech "Does it have any markings on it, any names, any symbols?" Caller "Yes, it says 4X!"

    A Florida Marlins season ticket holder was ejected at a home game for heckling the umpire too loudly. No word on yet what the Marlins will do to their other season ticket holder.

    True story from a Novell NetWire SysOp:
    Caller: "Hello, is this Tech Support?"
    Tech: "Yes, it is. How may I help you?"
    Caller: "The cup holder on my PC is broken and I am within my warranty period. How do I go about getting that fixed?"
    Tech: "I'm sorry, but did you say a cup holder?"
    Caller: "Yes, it's attached to the front of my computer."
    Tech: "Please excuse me if I seem a bit stumped, It's because
    I am. Did you receive this as part of a promotional, at a trade
    show? How did you get this cup holder? Does it have any trademark on it?"
    Caller: "It came with my computer, I don't know anything about a
    promotional. It just has' 4X' on it."
    At this point the Tech Rep had to mute the caller, because he couldn't stand it.
    The caller had been using the load drawer of the CD-ROM drive as a cup holder, and snapped it off the drive!

    Caller: Hello, is this the Help Line?

    HelpLine: Yes, it is. How may I help you?

    Caller: The cup holder on my PC is broken and I am within my warranty period. How do I go about getting that fixed?

    HelpLine: I'm sorry, but did you say a cup holder?

    Caller: Yes, it's attached to the front of my computer.

    HelpLine: Please excuse me if I seem a bit stumped, it's because I am. Did you receive this as part of a promotional, at a trade show? How did you get this cup holder? Does it have any trademark on it?

    Caller: It came with my computer, I don't know anything about a promotional. It just has' 4X' on it.

    At this point the HelpLine operator realized that the caller had been using the load drawer of the CD-ROM drive as a cup holder, and snapped it off the drive.
