I agree on the level of incompetence displayed by "technical sales" people in retail stores. Since I'm a salesman of industrial products of a technical nature, I find it particularly disturbing when they simply parrot the idiocy of a coworker rather that read about the products they sell. Kinda like trying to build a system without first becoming familiar with the motherboard manual and case wiring instructions. Next stop - PC Mech and a thread entitled HELP ME! My latest people-pet-peeve is worse than the retail sales people. How 'bout the latest trend to have all your tech support routed to India? What a pain in the back side to try to get answers from THOSE people! Half the time they don't understand what I'm asking and the other half they don't understand what they are answering!
