[W] I did a
computer search to
see how much was
spent on education last year.
[M] I'm sure you discovered that more money was allocated
to the military than to education.
[W] Unfortunately, yes. I fail
to see why we ignore
this tragic fact.
[M] I can't figure this
out. When I tried to access my
E-mail program, the monitor went black.
[W] Sounds like there's a problem with the display.
[M] Let me shut down the
computer and then try one more time.
[M] Have you figured
out what the problem is?
[W] Yes, the new software program is not compatible
with this operating system.
[M] I think we warned
you about that before you purchased the program.
[W] I've made duplicate
copies of my files and stored them on
separate diskettes.
[M] That's a good idea. I
accidentally deleted
an important file and had no backup.
[W] You shouldn't ignore
the warnings about
always saving your data.
