Customer: “What does ‘dual-core’ mean?”
Salesman: “It basically means you have two computers in one. It also means you can plug your laptop into it.”
Stupid Salespeople
I was in our University Bookstore the other day looking at software when I overheard a salesman talking to a lady about an iMac.
Salesman: “It has a built in color monitor and comes with a mouse and keyboard–”
Customer: “Does this thing come with a battery backup system?”
Salesman: “No, but we have one over there for $99.00. Do you have problems with power outages?”
Customer: “No, but I don’t want to lose all of my Microsoft documents everytime I turn off the computer!”
Salesman: “You don’t need a battery backup for that. That’s why it has a 4 gigabyte hard drive.”
Customer: “A hard what?”
Salesman: “A hard drive. It’s like a whole bunch of floppy disks inside your computer that you can store documents on.”
Customer: “I want the battery backup.”
Salesman: “You don’t need it.”
Customer: “Why?”
