Back with another great l-user story.
Does anyone remember those old days where the PC has a 486 processor ? Well this is something that happened to someone while working at a store. And of course it’s about someone who does not know nothing about computers.
It was the time when Intel just launched their Pentium MMX processor I think. Someone came to that store and bought a brand new PC. Everything was fine, the computer worked perfectly and the customer was happy about his acquisition.
But, as all things have to happen … the customer returns the second day. He said that the computer he bought is incomplete , that he was mislead by the sales person. With him, another “connoisseur ” in computers. And what is missing ? The computer’s CACHE !!!. What the heck … try to explain to him that this type of processor has the cache build in, but no, he must have that old piece of hardware that is placed in the slot for the cache.
Okay, my friend says to him. “Mister, if you show me where the cache must be placed on this type of motherboard than I will pay for your computer.” So, the customer looks and the other one too. Well, surprise , surprise , not slot for the card. And of course no card for that type motherboard. Tough luck.

Had he known that, that would have spared his and my friends time. But, some people are met to be l-Users for ever.

Back with some more interesting l-users stories. This one I’m about to tell you happened to another friend who was kind enough to tell it to me and allow me to post it on this blog. He works at a local computer shop. He is a computer parts salesman.
One day , a “hillbilly” ( also known as a strawberry-man = a person who left for Spain to work as a strawberry farmer, helping with the harvest picking / gathering ) fresh out of Spain came to his store and wanted to buy a brand new computer for his son. That fact that he wanted a computer is very nice, but he wanted one that was sitting in the showcase window of the store. He wanted only that one, he did not care that they could build him a brand new one exactly like that one. No, he wanted that one. So, my friend gets it, packs it and so he got one new happy customer. Everything was fine for about two months.
After the time has passed, my friend finds himself face to face with that person telling him that his computer is broke. When he asked what happened the buyer simply tells him that “the computers coffee cup holder is broken”. WTF ???
My friend takes a look at the computer only to find that the “coffee cup holder” was actually the CD/DVD-ROM !!! And indeed it was ruined … coffee spilled all over it. Of course in wasn’t working at all. The mechanism was jammed and could not even move the tray 2 cm’s.
When he was asked about it, the buyer said he did not know what it was for but he was very glad that he could place his coffee cup there when he sat at the computer. The only thing he minded was that fact that it kept closing and spilling his coffee. Duhhh !!! Stupid people.

After explaining him exactly what was that actually and what he was suppose to do with it he responded that he did not knot and that my friend should have told him about it.
Well, he had to buy a brand new optical drive unit because the warranty for the old one was void.

My conclusion : IF YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT IT IS ASK SOMEONE WHO KNOWS !!!

Until i saw the lady clicking at the cancel button.
I asked her why do you cancel that window?
An she told me kindly Because i see the cancel button and i have to click-it sometimes its too fast and i cant reach it in time

One day someone comes to the store wanting to buy a 500GB hard disk. So, he tells him what the offer is, what brands do they have. The person chooses one , pays for it and leaves home , very happy that he now has a bigger storage. Only to come back , a few hours latter , and makes a big fuss over the fact that he is missing some space. My friend checks to see if he did not give him a smaller disk instead. Nope, that was not the case , the disk was indeed a 500GB one.
But no, the buyer keeps telling him that he is missing about 23 GB of space , that he only has 477GB and not 500 as the label says.
SO my friend starts to explain to him that in fact he has a 500Gb disk but because of the way a bit and a byte are defined makes up for the missing disk space. But no, the person starts yelling that he wants his money back , that he got cheated. My friend gets a little nervous, makes a refund and tells him to go somewhere else where he would find a hdd with all the space.

That person leaves the store, only to come back in an hour to buy the hard disk again, since that store had the best offer. He apologized for his behavior stating that he did not know.

Maybe someone should make a press conference and inform everyone about that little thing.

Cheers

He works as a help desk at a local company.
One day , some lady calls tech support and starts poring all her miseries about the services the company provides … her internet does not work , her email is blocked … things like that. So my friend, tries to resolve her email problem. He asks her the password to her email account. She answers … well thats confidential. Though luck. But my friend checks the logs and the database and starts telling the lady.
My Friend : “Ma’am , you are registered in our database with the password `crocodile !`”
Lady : “Yes, thats true.”
My Friend : “But you are trying to login using the password `alligator` !!!”
Lady : “So what ? Isn’t it the same thing ?”

The end. I was speachless when he told me about it.

One day , when I was doing a routine check on someone’s activity I found out how to burn a CD, the L-User style. So, You have Nero Burning Rom, a computer with documents and a L-User. The user needed to burn about 5 cd’s. How does he do it ? Simple .. these are the actual steps he took :

1. Placed the Cd in the tray, opened Nero, selected the documents and pressed the burn button. Pretty simple and normal so far …

2. When the burning process get to 100%, Nero take’s a little longer to finish and give you the “Burn Process Succesfull” messege . During that time I see the user click on on CANCEL button !!!

3. He puts another cd, using the same layout, not closing and starting another cd-project, drags and drops other documents, and burns the new cd . And, surprise, at 100% he pressed the CANCEL button again. I’ve seen him do it for about 3 times before I could not resist and closed the program.

So … a new way of burning a CD … L-User Style.

I wonder if the CD’s work.
