RE: I'm sticking with WinHelp (was Re: WinHelp on Vista - ausefullink)

["Dan Goldstein" <DGoldstein -at- riverainmedical -dot- com>]

(Someone asked me off-list why I mentioned our office phone system in
this thread.)
----------------------------------

Phone Guy: Well, I think that covers all of your new phone functions.
Any questions?

Me: How do I program speed-dial numbers into my personal extension?

Phone Guy: You don't need that function. With the new system, you can
access a central directory of speed-dial numbers that your administrator
sets up. You can access it from any extension!

Me: Yeah, but what if I want to have some private speed-dial numbers
that I don't want everyone to have access to?

Phone Guy: You don't need that function.

----------------------------------
At that point, I didn't ROTF, but I was definitely LOL. And it wasn't
even Friday...
