| ABBOTT: | Super Duper computer store. Can I help you? |
| COSTELLO: | Thanks. I'm setting up an office in my den and I'm thinking about buying a computer. |
| ABBOTT: | Mac? |
| COSTELLO: | No, the name's Lou. |
| ABBOTT: | Your computer? |
| COSTELLO: | I don't own a computer. I want to buy one. |
| ABBOTT: | Mac? |
| COSTELLO: | I told you, my name's Lou. |
| ABBOTT: | What about Windows? |
| COSTELLO: | Why? Will it get stuffy in here? |
| ABBOTT: | Do you want a computer with Windows? |
| COSTELLO: | I don't know. What will I see when I look at the windows? |
| ABBOTT: | Wallpaper. |
| COSTELLO: | Never mind the windows. I need a computer and software. |
| ABBOTT: | Software for Windows? |
| COSTELLO: | No. On the computer! I need something I can use to write proposals, track expenses and run my business. What do you have? |
| ABBOTT: | Office. |
| COSTELLO: | Yeah, for my office. Can you recommend anything? |
| ABBOTT: | I just did. |
| COSTELLO: | You just did what? |
| ABBOTT: | Recommend something. |
| COSTELLO: | You recommended something? |
| ABBOTT: | Yes. |
| COSTELLO: | For my office? |
| ABBOTT: | Yes. |
| COSTELLO: | OK, what did you recommend for my office? |
| ABBOTT: | Office. |
| COSTELLO: | Yes, for my office! |
| ABBOTT: | I recommend Office with Windows. |
| COSTELLO: | I already have an office with windows! OK, let's just say I'm sitting at my computer and I want to type a proposal.
What do I need? |
| ABBOTT: | Word. |
| COSTELLO: | What word? |
| ABBOTT: | Word in Office. |
| COSTELLO: | The only word in office is office. |
| ABBOTT: | The Word in Office for Windows. |
| COSTELLO: | Which word in office for windows? |
| ABBOTT: | The Word you get when you click the blue "W". |
| COSTELLO: | I'm going to click your blue "w" if you don't start with some straight answers. What about financial bookkeeping?
You have anything I can track my money with? |
| ABBOTT: | Money. |
| COSTELLO: | That's right. What do you have? |
| ABBOTT: | Money. |
| COSTELLO: | I need money to track my money? |
| ABBOTT: | It comes bundled with your computer. |
| COSTELLO: | What's bundled with my computer? |
| ABBOTT: | Money. |
| COSTELLO: | Money comes with my computer? |
| ABBOTT: | Yes. No extra charge. |
| COSTELLO: | I get a bundle of money with my computer? How much? |
| ABBOTT: | One copy. |
| COSTELLO: | Isn't it illegal to copy money? |
| ABBOTT: | Microsoft gave us a license to copy Money. |
| COSTELLO: | They can give you a license to copy money? |
| ABBOTT: | Why not? THEY OWN IT! |
