Users diagnosis of IT issues at its best ...
OK
Said 'user' brings in their laptop for a look at.
Can you guess what their diagnosis was as to the problem or cause of the issue?
None of us guessed, you couldnt make stuff up like this ...

My colleague said, "go have a look at that laptop, power it on, and see what your diagnosis is"
I looked, gave my verdict, and said "nope thats not what caused it, even xxx (our other techy) didnt manage to suss the reason behind the problem"
I LMAO when I was told, gotta love the users

The lines would indicate that it was possibly dropped, but there appears to be no surface damage to it.
Did the processor fan stop working, overheat, and explode ?

Why cant people be honest? I hope we charge their budget code for this screen for this, unfortunately its out my hands, but even my manager says its bollox
I treat my works laptop like my own, why shouldnt others?
(moreso that its the laptop im on and installed windows 7 on it the other day)
