The best of the lot 

6). A plain computer illiterate   guy rings   
     tech support to report that his computer is faulty. 

Tech: What's the problem? 

User: There is smoke coming out of the power  supply. 

Tech:   (keeps quite for moment) 

Tech: You'll need a new power supply. 

User: No, I don't! I just need to change the  startup files. 

Tech: Sir, the power supply is faulty. You'll  need to replace it. 

User: No way! Someone told me that I just  needed to 
      change the startup and it will fix the problem! 
      All I need is for you to tell me the  command. 

Tech support:: 10 minutes later, the User is still adamant that he is right. 
               The tech is frustrated and fed up. 

Tech support::(hush hush) 
Tech: Sorry, Sir. We don't normally tell our   customers this, 
      but there is an undocumented DOS command that will fix the problem. 

User: I knew it! 

Tech   : Just add the line LOAD NOSMOKE.COM < http://nosmoke.com/> 
         at  the end of the CONFIG.SYS. 
   Let  me know how it goes. 10 minutes later. 

User   : It didn't work. The power supply is  still smoking. 

Tech   : Well, what version of DOS are you using? 

User   : MS-DOS 6.22. 

Tech   : That's your problem there. That version of DOS didn't come with NOSMOKE. 
         Contact Microsoft and ask them for a patch that will give you the file. 
   Let me know how it goes. 

1 hour later. 

User  : I need a new power supply. 

Tech support  : How did you come to that conclusion? 

Tech support  :  (hush hush) 

User   : Well, I rang Microsoft and told him  about what you said, 
         and he started asking questions about the make of power supply. 

Tech: Then what did he say? 

User: He told me that my power supply isn't  compatible with NOSMOKE.
