Tech support is one job I really wouldn't fancy Tom. A friend of mine worked for the m.O.t. (minastery of transport), office on their tech support line when they were installing new systems, which involved phone calls from lots of mechanics and garage owners, ---- very good at fixing cars, less good with computers.
In one phone call, my friend told someone to press ctrl alt, the chap asked where, my friend (with much patience), asked him to get his keyboard. the chap was a litle surprised, the phone was put down and there was much clanking, when it was picked up, my friend in great suspician asked what the chap had done, ---- he replied that he had his keyboard, ie, the wooden board on which he hung his keys. this was also the same phone call in which the mechanic threatened to take the new Pc outside and run it over with his van! though in fairness, it seems that any tech system set up by the government is so needlessly, stupidly complex it staggers even relatively computer literate people, sinse it's generally completely insane with network passwords and custome software that doesn't do the job (rather like our university network, lol!).
