    me i think use Magic Folders.... why you guys all know the reason.

    I remember when i was a Gateway tech at a call center, there used be a guy called Dell.He once got a customer who had a problem with a stuck battery in his laptop.

    The customer asked Dell how he can install a new one without damaging the whole unit. Dell had no clue what to do with the customer. So as being a junior he asked his team leader, his superior, who happenned to be a chemical engineer from Michigan, for his advice.

    This guy told him to say to the customer that he should use more force in order to remove the battery. When Dell asked him how much, he said 700 Horse power.

    Dell did as he was told?

    As expected, the customer asked back where he could find the horses.

    Dell gave him the Gateway Accessory store webpage and told him to browse thru it and that he will find one horse for sure.

    now that was some real powerful advice.

    That one is indeed the best of all i've heard

    i just not dare to say that to my customers , but deep in my heart i say it over and over again

    now the one i do tell my cust a lot is the one ND said "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"

    NOw the one i personally given, and LMAO everytime i think about it is:


    me: Ma'am, press that button over there
    Her: How?
    me: use the mouse and click the left button on top of that OK button
    Her: what mouse?
    me: the device with a long cord and 2 or 3 buttons, and you move it around to move the arrow in your screen
    Her: ooohhhh you mean the Pedal in my Feet?
    Her: It's too difficult for me, i can't move and click the button
    me:
    me: erh... yeah.. that was meant to be used with a hand
    Her: really?, it seems to be made for there, like a car and Sewing machine
    me: ...sigh.....


    and the chat contineues for a long while

    that was way back when i just started out of HighSchool and working for an ISP, internet just started to bloom
