Shawn,

He certainly was not the brightest bulb - poor fellow. I am not sure if he is really deserving of the term Tech either.

Another example of his response to my question re: Safari : He supplied me with a link to update my browser - the link was for Safari V. 1.2 !! I advised him that we were now up to 2.0.2. He had nothing to say to that either.

Oh well...I guess that live "help" chat was 20 minutes of my life that I wasted and will never get back.

Amber,

Sounds like your conversation with the eBay tech (term used VERY loosely) confirms the continual "dumbing down" of America!

Yes..I believe he was experiencing a "significant ignorance challenge" on this one. He stated that he had just spoken to one of their techs and determined that eBay is "not really designed for Mac users" and that is basically where his suggestion to buy a "regular computer" came up.
