? Call-of-the-Day: Mac is essential cabin equipment; see ya fridge! Edited by Jeff Mosqueda, Staff Writer The following Call-of-the-Day was submitted by Apple Assurance agent Russ Swindell in Tempe, Arizona: After answering the phone in my usual manner I was halted by the high pitched squelch on the line. I repeated the greeting hoping that this was a dead line or something. But the caller responded in a faint Texan voice: ? Caller: Hello? ? Agent: Yes, what type of computer are you calling about? ? Caller: Yeah, bud, I have a Quadra 605 and we are all in a cabin with inverted power. Can ya here it? Well, how much voltage and power do I need to start this thing up? I read him the electrical specs for his machine. (100 volts) ? Caller: Oh wow, I've got 98 volts right now. (And I hear him muffle the phone as he yells) Honey! Yank that 'fridge! After a moment, the squelching stops and I hear the Quadra start-up chime. ? Caller: Yee-Haw!!! Honey, we got Links Pro! (turning back to the phone) Thanks partner. <click>
