I remember some twit in PC World trying to sell my friend a PC with a DVD drive in it when she specifically said "I don't need one, I have a DVD player for that", the argument was fun, but pointless, and its always a laugh seeing the faces of the staff in PC World flumoxed by a simple argument
Best PC world quote i have is "whats an hard drive?" the assistant said "One moment ill ask my manager".

That is no word of a lie. How on earth did they get a job?!?!?!?

Another one was with digital TV. Well you may or may not know that some arials needed upgrading to be able to get enough signal gain as to produce a good signal so the picture doesnt break down and go all pixelated.

Well a guy from PC world was explaining to a customer that they needed to get a arial with the right distance between the directors had to match the wavelength of the sqare waves which a digital signal uses....

What is the major problem with this statement? Well id guess its the fact that a digital signal still uses a analgue carrier with the digital signal modulated onto it. So the arial is still picking up a analgue signal...

(i know it isnt PC's but still, its a corker!
