Customer: "You mean the 'Enter' key?"
Tech Support: "No, ma'am, the right arrow key."

I'm a network administrator at a local school district, and I get some doozies.
Teacher: "My keyboard is broken."
Me: "What is it doing to make you think it's broken?"
Teacher: "When I go to type my password it doesn't type it right. No matter what I type, it's always a little star."
Me: "Yes, it is supposed to do that."
Teacher: "Well, how does it know if I get it right or wrong if it's always little stars!?"
Me: "It displays the asterisks so no one else can see your password."
Teacher: "That is stupid. I hate Bill Gates."
Back in the good old pre-PC days we sold a system that required the user to hit Ctrl-A in order to sign on. We sold one to some outfit in Canada. Well, trying to get them going over the phone took an hour. We'd say, "Hit Ctrl-A," and they'd say, "Ok, we hit Ctrl, eh? And nothing happened, eh?"
Me: "Type 'http://...'"
Him: "It didn't work."
Me: "Ok, read me the address you typed."
Him: "H-T-T-P-C-O-L-O-N--"
Me: "No, no. Colon, on the keyboard."
Him: "What?"
Me: "Do you know what a colon is?"
Him: "Of course I do. I am a doctor."
Tech Support: "Ok Bob, let's press the control and escape keys at the same time. That brings up a task list in the middle of the screen. Now type the letter 'P' to bring up the Program Manager."
Customer: "I don't have a 'P'."
Tech Support: "On your keyboard, Bob."
Customer: "What do you mean?"
Tech Support: "'P' on your keyboard, Bob."
Customer: "I'm not going to do that!"
Wow these were pretty funny. Here are my favorites:
1) Is that the letter zero or the number zero
2) * Customer: "Uhh, I dont have a '7' key."
* Tech Support: "It's between the '6' and '8'."
* Customer: "I don't have a '7' key."
* Tech Support: "Do you see the '1' key?"
* Customer: "Yeah."
* Tech Support: "What's to the right of that?"
* Customer: "'2'."
* Tech Support: "And further right?"
* Customer: "'3', '4', '5', '6'."
* Tech Support: "What's the next one?"
* Customer: "'8'."
* Tech Support: "It should be to the left of the '8' and the right of the '6'."
* Customer: "Ohhhh, that '7' key."
3) * Him: "Where's the key for that line thing?"
* Me: "Huh?"
* Him: "You know, that one that looks like an upside down exclamation mark."
* Me: "You mean the letter 'i'?"
* Him: "Yeah, that's it!"
4) * Me: "Type 'http://...'"
* Him: "It didn't work."
* Me: "Ok, read me the address you typed."
* Him: "H-T-T-P-C-O-L-O-N--"
* Me: "No, no. Colon, on the keyboard."
* Him: "What?"
* Me: "Do you know what a colon is?"
* Him: "Of course I do. I am a doctor."
5) * Customer: "When I do F10, it doesn't work."
* Tech Support: "Can you open up that screen and try it?"
I heard three clicks on the keyboard.
* Customer: "See there, nothing."
* Tech Support: "Just try one button, the one marked F10. Do you see it? On the top row?"
* Customer: "How do I type all three letters with one key?"
* Tech Support: "No, look at the top row of keys. What do you see?"
* Customer: "Funny Squiggle Key, One Key, Two Key..."
* Tech Support: "Hang on, look at the row ABOVE that."
* Customer: "Um, wait, what is this?"
* Tech Support: "Read me what you see."
* Customer: "OK, here I see some F-ing keys."
* Tech Support: "These are the...F-ing keys I was talking about."
* Customer: "Which one do you want me to press?"
* Tech Support: "F10."
* Customer: "Is that an F1 and an F0?"
* Tech Support: "F0? Do you have an F0 key?"
* Customer: (mumble)
* Tech Support: "Skim over to the right, and you should see one marked F10."
* Customer: "Actually, I did. Will that work?"
* Tech Support: "Yes. Press it now."
* Customer: "On the left or right?"
* Tech Support: (???) "This isn't a mouse thing. Just press it."
* Customer: "Hey, it works!"
