As for the 'push the power button' stories, LOL. I can relate! I'm the first line of help in our dept for computing problems. Hardware is not my thing, so I call out to the computing support office for that but I get all the "how come I can't see the window" questions...and the answer is: it's under another dialog box...CASCADE the windows...sigh

My all time favorite: We have a computing lab and I'm mainly responible for keeping it running. So all questions start out with me if I'm around. I have carefully labeled EACH machine and all the printers. We have six computers. two have their own prtr and three share a prt, leaving one with no printer at all. It has a sign on it with NO PRINTER in 1/2 in letters!!!). So students routinely pick that last computer and come crying to me that the printer isn't working...uh duh, you mean you are trying to print with a pc that has no printer attached...GET GLASSES or learn to read! Sheesh! LOL
