You also must understand that more than being undertrained, they must also answer in a short time, making their situation really ambiguous : they don't know, but they must answer quickly ...
So I guess that instead of saying "Stupid guys" and so on, maybe you can phone them and say "Ok, for that problem, I found the solution, here is how to do ..."
Never forget you may one day need them ...

Whatever happened to the words ... "I don't know but I will find you someone that can help."... Isn't that what the highly trained personel are there for? When I worked Tech Support I used the honest approach and i am sure customers were happy with the results. I hate to think of what happens to the customers who get the wrong answers.
