> I just had a work order given to me saying that an instructors mouse here on campus wasn't working. Seems that she used to have a 386 machine, but since she got an "upgrade" to a 486 her mouse hasn't been working. The student technician who checked her machine told her that it was because her 386 mouse wasn't compatible with her 486 machine. He sent me a work order ordering a new mouse. I guess I need to go find the *real* problem.

Heh. I haven't trusted our computer lab here on campus since one of our techs last year told me that it's impossible to have a device conflict under Windows 95 (completely ignoring the fact that that *was* the problem, and that the error message clearly said so). I generally have very little respect for the computer knowledge of *anybody* who extolls the virtues of Windows to me...
