HelpDesk: Helpo. How can I help you today?
End User: There's smoke coming from the power supply on my computer.
HelpDesk: Looks like you need a new power supply.
End User: No, I don't! I just need to change the startup files.
HelpDesk: Sir, what you described is a faulty power supply. You need to replace it.
End User: No way! Someone told me that I just had to change the system startup files to fix the problem! All I need is for you to tell me the right command.
(For the next ten minutes, in spite of the technician's efforts to explain the problem and its solution, the customer adamantly insisted that he was right. So, in frustration, the technician responded)
HelpDesk: I'm sorry. We don't normally tell our customers this, but there's an undocumented DOS command that will fix the problem.
End User: I knew it!
HelpDesk: Just add the line "LOAD NOSMOKE.COM" at the end of the CONFIG.SYS file and everything should work fine. Let me know how it goes.
(About ten minutes later, the technician received a call back from the customer.)
End User: It didn't work. The power supply is still smoking.
HelpDesk: Well, what version of DOS are you using?
End User: MS-DOS 6.22.
HelpDesk: Well, that's your problem. That version of DOS doesn't include NOSMOKE. You'll need to contact Microsoft and ask them for a patch. Let me know how it all works out.
(When nearly an hour had passed, the phone rang again.)
End User: I need a new power supply.
HelpDesk: How did you come to that conclusion?
End User: Well, I called Microsoft and told the technician what you said, and he started asking me questions about the make of the power supply.
HelpDesk: What did he tell you?
End User: He said my power supply isn't compatible with NOSMOKE.
