Dealer: Mac?
Customer: No, the name's Lou.
Dealer: Your computer?
Customer: I don't own a computer. I want to buy one.
Dealer: Mac?
Customer: I told you, my name's Lou.
Dealer: What about Windows?
Customer: Why? Will it get stuffy in here?
Dealer: Do you want a computer with windows?
Customer: I don't know. What will I see when I look in the windows?
Dealer: Wallpaper.
Customer: Never mind the windows. I need a computer and software.
Dealer: Software for windows?
Customer: No. On the computer! I need something I can use to write proposals, track expenses and run my business. What have you got?
Dealer: Office.
Customer: Yeah, for my office. Can you recommend anything?
Dealer: I just did.
Customer: You just did what?
Dealer: Recommend something.
Customer: You recommended something?
Dealer: Yes.
Customer: For my office?
Dealer: Yes.
Customer: OK, what did you recommend for my office?
Dealer: Office.
Customer: Yes, for my office!
Dealer: I recommend Office with Windows.
Customer: I already have an office and it has windows! OK, lets just say, I'm sitting at my computer and I want to type a proposal. What do I need?
Dealer: Word.
Customer: What word?
Dealer: Word in Office.
Customer: The only word in office is office.
Dealer: The Word in Office for Windows.
Customer: Which word in office for windows?
Dealer: The Word you get when you click the blue "W."
Customer: I'm going to click your blue "w" if you don't start with some straight answers. OK, forget that. Can I watch movies on the Internet?
Dealer: Yes, you want Real One.
Customer: Maybe a real one, maybe a cartoon. What I watch is none of your business. Just tell me what I need!
Dealer: Real One.
Customer: If its a long movie I also want to see reel 2,3&4. Can I watch them?
Dealer: Of course.
Customer: Great, with what?
Dealer: Real One.
Customer: OK, I'm at my computer and I want to watch a movie. What do I do?
Dealer: You click the blue "1."
Customer: I click the blue one what?
Dealer: The blue "1."
Customer: Is that different from the blue w?
Dealer: The blue 1 is Real One and the blue W is Word.
Customer: What word?
Dealer: The Word in Office for Windows.
Customer: But there's three words in "office for windows"!
Dealer: No, just one. but its the most popular Word in the world.
Customer: It is?
Dealer: Yes, but to be fair, there aren't many other Words left. It pretty much wiped out all the other Words out there.
Customer: And that word is real one?
Dealer: Real One has nothing to do with Word. Real One isn't even part of Office.
Customer: Stop! Don't start that again. What about financial bookkeeping? You have anything I can track my money with?
Dealer: Money.
Customer: That's right. What do you have?
Dealer: Money.
Customer: I need money to track my money?
Dealer: It comes bundled with your computer.
Customer: What's bundled to my computer?
Dealer: Money.
Customer: Money comes with my computer?
Dealer: Yes. No extra charge.
Customer: I get a bundle of money with my computer? How much?
Dealer: One copy.
Customer: Isn't it illegal to copy money?
Dealer: Microsoft gave us a license to copy money.
Customer: They can give you a license to copy money?
Dealer: Why not? THEY OWN IT!
