One thing I hate about outsourcing tech support is trying to understand some guy with a heavy Indian accent. Wasted 120$ just to hear crap advice that didn't even work, like get a new NIC. But at least I can use the NIC in an old pc I found.

It won't be long until you order your Happy Meal through a videoscreen with some guy from India, that reports what you want through the Internet to the employees working there.

Actually, that isn't a bad idea.  Whenever I walk into a resteraunt, I have to wait for someone who isn't taking drive-thru orders to take mine.

I'm for it!

Tech support: the absolute bottom of the barrel in the it world. I was in Desktop Support the second to the bottom.

Thank you please come again

 Note 1: 800 numbers log all inbound and outbound calls.  You *ARE* being traced.
Note 2: The only 800 numbers that redirect to private numbers, at least in the U.S., are collect callers.
Note 3: Microsoft Tech Support doesn't accept collect calls.

It took me a moment to realise that you WEREN'T suggesting that the phone company charges us the $35-per-incident Bullshitter's Anonymous franchise fee imposed by MS Tech Support.
