: Introducing The Computer Solutions Line - call and browse our vast library of 
: hints, tips, and secrets or contact out technical Support Staff with your 
: custom question or problem. The Computer Solutions Line includes information

: including spreadsheets, presentation products, wordprocessors, communications

: absolutely any question you might have! Many of our staff are Certified 
: Microsoft Professionals!

Hooray ;)


: What are some of the questions our support staff love to answer?

: What computer should I buy?

Who cares...

: Can I upgrade to Windows95?

I think you mean downgrade from UNIX to 95, why should I
want to.

: How can I stop General Protection Faults in my Windows apps.?
: How can I speed up my machine?

Chuck windows off and install an operating system instead.

: I am getting the following error in my wordprocessor . . .?

: Attention Expert Users! For a limited time, you can call the Computer 
: Solutions Line and leave your own tip on a particular product with our support 
: staff. Be sure to leave your name and address as well as phone number. If your 
: tip is used on our service, we will express you a check for $50! If you like,

So everytime someone says 'bugger it. I am sick and tired of re-booting,
running out of memory, losing files, hand me those UNIX install disks...'
you guys will send me $50. Neat, I'll donate half of it to Linus
(only fair).

Mark.
