I have never noticed any great advantages in phone support.
If it is software problems you should be able to fix em your self.
Hardware problems that are under warranty, well I just call the
computershop to let them know I am coming, and what hardware
to have availible for me to replace.
I do it on the spot, save them time and effort and save me the
problems incured after some 14y/o pokes around the intimates
of my computer..
Rant mode off....
I should cut back on coffee I think..
