COSTELLO: ââ?¬Å?Thanks. Iââ?¬â?¢m setting up an office in my den and Iââ?¬â?¢m thinking about buying a computer.ââ?¬Â

ABBOTT: ââ?¬Å?Mac maybe?ââ?¬Â

COSTELLO: ââ?¬Å?No, definitely, and the names Lou.ââ?¬Â

ABBOTT: ââ?¬Å?Your computer?ââ?¬Â

COSTELLO: ââ?¬Å?I donââ?¬â?¢t have a computer. I want to buy one.ââ?¬Â

ABBOTT: ââ?¬Å?Mac?ââ?¬Â

COSTELLO: ââ?¬Å?I told you, my name is Lou.ââ?¬Â

ABBOTT: ââ?¬Å?O.K. What about Windows?ââ?¬Â

COSTELLO: ââ?¬Å?Why? Will it get stuffy in here?ââ?¬Â

ABBOTT: ââ?¬Å?Do you want a computer with Windows?ââ?¬Â

COSTELLO: ââ?¬Å?I donââ?¬â?¢t know. What will I see with windows?ââ?¬Â

ABBOTT: ââ?¬Å?Wallpaper.ââ?¬Â

COSTELLO: ââ?¬Å?Never mind the windows. I need a computer and software.ââ?¬Â

ABBOTT: ââ?¬Å?Software for Windows?ââ?¬Â

COSTELLO: ââ?¬Å?No, for the computer! I need something to write proposals, track expenses and run my business. What do you have?ââ?¬Â
