Seems that she used to have a 386 machine, but since she got an "upgrade" to a 486 her mouse hasn't been working. The student technician who checked her machine told her that it was because her 386 mouse wasn't compatible with her 486 machine. He sent me a work order ordering a new mouse. I guess I need to go find the *real* problem.

As I said this is a college campus. This instructor does choral/vocal classes. Her dept. is not as "worthy" as some of the other depts. on campus. Seems like there are PII's and PIII's all over campus, but they only go to actual doctorate holders who never use them, while the people who really need them are stuck with 386/486 machines.

Anyway, I just thought it was funny to open my workorders and see that there.
