That brings up a task list in the middle of the screen. Now type the letter "P" to bring up the Program Manager." <br />Customer: I don't have a P. <br />Tech support: On your keyboard, Bob. <br />Customer: What do you mean? <br />Tech support: "P".....on your keyboard, Bob. <br />Customer: I'M NOT GOING TO DO THAT!

LOL, good stuff Sean.<br /><br />I helped an employee of ours over the phone with a new printer for his home office. I asked if it came with a diskette. He said yes. I said, good, hit Start, Run, A:, ya know the usual stuff. Nothing there he says. We go through it a couple of more times, throw in a couple of restarts and still nothing there. Finally, I asked him "where's the disk, Don?". In my hand.<br /><br />This is only one of many similar incidents with Good Ole Don. He stills calls his monitor the "Big Eye" . . .

Those are great. <br /><br />My mother called me yesterday, she couldn't get anything to come up on her monitor. I stopped by and the monitor is dark. The computer is on. I push the monitor power button, nothing. Hmmm. I traced the power cord. It's plugged into the wall, not the power strip. She moved it because she didn't like the way it hung behind her desk. It was working after she moved the cord. Hmmmm. I turn on the overhead light and thats when I noticed she has three switchs on the wall. One for the Fan, one for the light and Yep, one for the outlet next to her bed that the monitor is plugged into. Today I will get her a surge protector with a longer cord so the monitor power cord won't hang like it was making her curtins look bad.

The guy at Dell laughed at me when I told him I couldn't find the "any key".
