It's really ****ing hard to delete system files, I doubt any of those are true.

It's really hard to delete them NOW. But back then, on systems like Windows 95, NT, and 3.1, there were less safety protocols and less files in use. So it used to be incredibly easy to delete them, which is why it isn't any more. Because of the idiots.

Though, some of the postings do seem a bit embellished.

I was calling to sign up with a new DSL provider. When the guy asked what operating system I was using, I said, "Linux." I was put on hold for five minutes, and then a supervisor came back and told me, "You can't use Linux to connect to the Internet. It's a hacker tool, anyway." I almost fell out of my chair.

this one made me rage. Also, I HATE THE STUPIDITY OF THE PEOPLE ON ADVERTS!!!

Take the which guide advert, there is a man that says: My internets failed on me, my hard-drive failed, my memory's gone. As if they're all linked in some way.

My father likes to delete things from the Windows System directory because he's convinced that's where the swap file lurks. I have to reinstall Windows 95 almost every day.

Tech Support: "Do you have any windows open right now?"
Customer: "Are you crazy woman, it's twenty below outside..."

so is this a girl?

Customer: "I have Windows Thirty One."
lol

A friend just got his new Aptiva/Win98 system and bought a bunch of software to go along with it. He installed everything, then complained that when he started his computer up, the screen was so cluttered he was having a hard time finding his desktop. I talked him through the process of making his desktop a more simple place by turning off fancy wallpaper, toolbars, and so on. He rebooted and said it was just as bad as it ever was. Sighing, I took a quick trip over to look at it.

Somewhat to my amazement, I discovered that every time the computer booted up, a half dozen or so program groups opened up on the desktop, and all sorts of programs were spilling their menu contents onto the screen. After some poking around, I discovered that he had installed everything -- everything -- into his StartUp folder.

I asked him why he installed all his programs in there. He said, "Well, I wanted to be sure they'd start up when I needed them, so...."

oh ok.

Customer: "I think my computer doesn't know what it is doing."
Tech Support: (pause) "Why? What is the problem with the system?"
Customer: "Well, it keeps asking me, 'What is this?'"
