Telling a customer his video card is broken and telling a customer that
his video card is still good, but would be better if replaced with a
newer one is two totally different things. Video card works = truth.
Video card doesn't work = untruth. The younger fellow was directed to
tell an untruth, better known as a lie. Ahhh, I can see it now, the day
when practices like this become acceptable.
Customer : Hi, I'd like this new cd-rom I purchased installed
Tech guy: ok, let me see *bang* *clang* *bang*. Hey, your hard drive is
dead also, wanna buy this new scsi drive with a scsi controller?
Customer: but, but......it worked yesterday
Tech guy: Trust me!!!

"Tell the customer to buy a new system" - OK so the old video card worked
... now let's see how well a 1Mb Speedstar 24x ISA video card works in my
new 800GHz AMD box. Pretty Crappy is my guess - and they'd probably have
a customer then telling everyone that the new system that they just bought
from "We-Fix-Computer" was a piece of junk that didn't work right until
they took it to "High-Price-Charlie" who put an new AGP 4x card in for
