Here's one for you:

Him: "Hi, I'm installing a new hard drive and Windows on my parent's computer. It's a Compaq, and the recovery CDs won't install to a 40GB hard drive. I was wondering if you would loan me your Windows 98 CD so I can install the XP upgrade."
Me: (knowing the answer before asking):  "Is this a computer from us?"
Him:  "No."
Me:  "Did you get the hard drive here?"
Him:  "No."
Me: "Well, we can't legally loan out our CDs. If it was a computer from us, I'd get you a 98 CD, but since it's from Compaq, you'd really have to talk to them."
Him:  "You can't make an exception?"
Me: "No, I really can't. But you could bring the system in, and I could install XP for you."
Him:  "No, I don't want to do that."

So he left.  Are people becoming more insane and demanding, or is it just me?
