Mr. Dave(not his real name) calls tech support with a very odd computer question.
"I just tried to put a CD in the CD door and the CD drive is installed upside down! Can you help?"
Me: "That's not something you see every day. What model of computer is it?"
Dave: "Well... let's see..." *I can just imagine him craning his neck UPSIDE DOWN right about now* "It's a Compaq suck2000."
Long pause.
Dave: "I think the whole CPU* is upside down."
Unfortunately, the whole system was such a tangle of wires that I recommended the fellow to get some assistance in unplugging and reorienting the box.
*Yes, I hate it when people call their computer case the CPU. Don't you?
