Here's one that used to be passed around a bit:
Customer: "I installed Windows 98 on my computer, and it doesn't work."
Tech Support: "Ok, what happens when you turn on your computer?"
Customer: "Boy, are you listening? I said it doesn't work."
Tech Support: "Well, what happens when you TRY to turn it on?"
Customer: "Look, I'm not a computer person. Talk regular English, not this computer talk, ok?"
Tech Support: "Ok, let's assume your computer is turned off, and you just sat down in front of it, and want to use it. What do you do?"
Customer: "Don't talk like I'm stupid, boy. I turn it on."
Tech Support: "And then what happens
Customer: "What do you mean?"
Tech Support: "Does anything appear on your monitor? I mean, the TV part."
Customer: "The same thing I saw last time I tried."
Tech Support: "And that is what?"
Customer: "Are you sure you know what you're doing?"
Tech Support: "Yes, sir. What is on your screen?"
Customer: "A bunch of little pictures."
Tech Support: "Ok, in the upper left corner, do you see 'My Computer'."
Customer: "No, all I see is that little red circle thing with the chunk out of it."
Tech Support: "You mean an apple?"
Customer: "I guess it kind of looks like an apple."

Here's another one. I didn't take this call, but I did hear the recording, as it was taken by a tech in our call center.
Customer: I am suing you guys!!!
Tech: Why is that sir?
Cust: I just called in, with Error 666. The tech told me to sprinkle my computer with holy water, and now there's smoke everywhere!
Tech: Are you serious, sir?
Cust: Do I sound like I'm joking you little <expletive>!?! Let me talk to your supervisor!!!

***From that point on, the tech tried to de-escalate, the custome kept cussing, and the tech released the call.
