@kzimmermann My favorite, from days past, was "I need a new modem."

"Ok, here is one for $12."

"No, it is much bigger than that."

"Ah, you mean the desktop computer."

@souldessin unbelievable! I would have pardoned if they confused the modem with a router, but this... holy crap.

Reminds of the time someone in my first company opened a ticket to fix the coffee maker because "it has LCD screen and blinky buttons"

@kzimmermann @garritfra It's not equivalent but the hardware that runs windows
