Fair enough.

I know enough about supporting software, etc, to know that there are literally a million things that can go wrong and almost everyone classifies them as OS problems.

Caller: "Windows isn't working."
Me: "What's the problem?"
Caller: "My file is gone from my wallpaper."
Me: "Hmmm. Did you move it somewhere, or accidentally delete it?"
Caller: "Nope. I know I didn't do anything to it. It's just gone. It's probably because Vista sucks. I don't know why I have to use it."
Me: "OK, well lets just open up your Recycle Bin and see if we get an error message. It might be that Vista Recycle Bin bug."
Caller: "Ohhh... OK, give me a second." "Oh wait. There's my file right there." "OK, I've moved it back on to my wallpaper. Thanks!"
Me: "No problem. Have a nice day!"
