Tech Support: How may I help you?
Customer: I'm writing my first email.

little circle around it.

A woman customer called the Canon help desk because she had a problem with
her printer.
Tech Support: Are you running it under windows?
Customer: No, my desk is next to the door, but that is a good point. The
man sitting next to me is by a window, and his printer is working fine!

.And last, but not least . . .

Tech Support: Okay George, 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, George.
Customer: What do you mean?
Tech Support: 'P' . . . on your keyboard, George.
Customer: I AM NOT GOING TO DO THAT!!!
