[QUOTE="LARGENUTZ"]You are correct. I should not have said idiots. Im just a little frustrated that my new $400 game system is not working two days after I purchased it. Then when you do call for technical support , you end up talking to someone who barely speaks English and has no technical knowledge. Way to be on top of your expected launch problems M$.the_GUNN_man
I know this is off topic but I wonder why SOOOO many phone support people barely speak english? Why do these people get hired? You would think that during the interview that if you can't understand them that why would you hire them, put a headset on them and have them talking to your customers. UNLESS this is done on purpose so that they can play the dumb role and get you frustrated enough you just hang up. The companies I have noticed who do it are: Nextel, Microsoft, SBC, Walmart.com, DirecTv, Charter, etc. I am sure there are many others.
Sorry about being off topic had to vent.
The reason why they can't speak english is because they are over seas, usually in India. And compared to most people in India, the MS tech support people speak pretty good english.
