By request, here is the "Tech Support" audio sketch that was uploaded in the V&A livejournal community some 5 odd years ago :) This is probably the longest of the sketches, clocking in at about ten minutes.
Some notes:
Some folks complained about Vinci's voice and that it was too low, but I've always envisioned it as being low and non-wispy. Just coz' he looks feminine doesn't mean he sounds girly too! And when Efrain sent me a test clip for the character, I knew right away that it was the perfect voice. I personally think he sounds adorable, and Efrain has really helped define a lot of Vinci's personality through his voicework. He's really talented! I'd send you a link to his FA page if he had one. :)
However, sirfox , the voice of Arty, does have an FA page. Go bother him. He says that his inspiration for the character is one part Bill Hicks, a tiny bit Utah Phillips, and pretty much him just talking like he normally does. :)
Anyhow, Efrain and I tag-teamed on the script. The part about deja vu and cake pieces is a reference to the previous sketch, "Cakepieces", which was a who's on first spoof; I need to find it again. The part about the mouse was basically poking fun at my iMac. Well, Bings are a spoof of Mac in general, and Dolphins are probably a Dell spoof. :)
Anyhow, I hope you like it! It's been requested kinda often on my Livestream lately.

XD Oh dear... I saw the problem coming pretty far away.
And wow, he's easily distracted by computer things. XD That stupid monkey...

LOL, I LOVED this! I can soooo relate to poor Arty. And Vinci's voice was perfectly spot-on to what I imagine him sounding like. He sounded, sooo cute, Greek, and, well, like Vinci!
Awesomely well done performance, definitely a winner and a keeper!

*snickers* Reminds me of a previous job I had, doing computer training and tech support. My previous employer was hiring people who barely knew how to operate PCs. Well done!
