Everything Needs Tech Support
04/12/2005 02:01 PMIt's no secret that more and more stuff around us every day is getting
computerized, but how that's going to impact our everyday lives
doesn't always get that much attention. One of the more interesting
elements of an increasingly high tech society is that we're going to
need a lot more tech support -- and it's not going to be acceptable to
wait 45 minutes on hold (with crappy hold music) to talk to someone
overseas who doesn't understand the problem and can't do anything to
help. Business Week is talking about the old Maytag repair guy, and
how
appliances are going high tech in a
big way. Of course, the old Maytag repair guy isn't going to be
able to fix your washing machine when its software crashes -- and with
our
chang
ing views on quality, you can be pretty sure that today's washing
machines won't last as long as the ones you bought a few decades ago.
So is it any surprise that tech companies are gearing up to get into
spaces that might seem a little out of place for them? IBM announced
today an
automotiv
e diagnostics solution to help deal with increasingly computerized
cars. What IBM has realized is that, increasingly, cars
are
computers -- and if they're 100% focused on being
in
the IT services business, they need to go where computers are
going. So, perhaps it's only a matter of time before you end up
calling IBM to come service your washing machine as well. Actually,
hopefully, the washing machine will do the calling itself.

Dumb tech-support explanations
Dumb tech-support explanations
05/21/2004 06:49 AMGreat open-mic question on Ask Slashdot: what's the worst bullishit
"explanation" you've ever gotten from tech support?
My cable modem connection had stopped work. Given my ISPs track
record, this was unremarkable, but after it continued for 2 days, I
decided to call the tech support number. After supplying my ID number,
the support person told me that my connection was intentionally shut
off because I was broadcasting a widely-circulated Windows virus. I
promptly informed the tech support person that I did not use the
Windows operating system on any of my computers, and that I could not
possibly have the virus I was accused of having.
The support rep immediately told me that I had the virus, and that
they would not turn my connection back on until I jumped through their
anti-virus hoops. I argued for almost 10 minutes with this neophyte
that I could not use their Windows anti-virus on my Linux systems, and
that even if I could, it would not do a damn bit of good. Did it
matter? Of course not.
Finally, in order to get my connection back on, I agreed to perform
their anti-virus tricks "to the best of my ability", and install
Windows just so I could "remove the virus" from my system. The rep
actually thought this was an excellent resolution to the problem, but
for some reason didn't believe I would actually do it (could have been
my vehement renouncements against the entirety of Microsoft's
products). After another 5 minutes of cajoling, I convinced her to
turn my connection back on so I could get the anti-virus tools, and
access Windows Update.
