A caller, perplexed that his new desktop computer - the one that was supposed to do everything short of bringing on world peace - was doing nothing, cried out for help. No problem, the IBM technician said. First, open a ‘window’ to launch a specific program.

Because, the caller responded, it was getting very chilly.
