1. Compaq is considering changing the command "Press Any Key" to "Press Return Key" because of the many calls asking where the "Any" key is.
2. An AST customer was asked to send a copy of her defective diskettes. A few days later a letter arrived from the customer along with Xeroxed copies of the floppies.
3. A Dell customer called to say he couldn't get his computer to fax anything. After 40 minutes of trouble-shooting, the technician discovered the man was trying to fax a piece of paper by holding it in front of the monitor screen and hitting the "send" key.
* I nominate the Dell technician to be included in the 'dumb' list for going through 40 minutes of trouble-shooting before correctly diagnosing the problem! (she says as a former Customer Care manager with an Internet Service Provider...)
