Most of the general public has interesting names for what my office calls the "tower"... and I was not immune before I leveled up to tech support - when I was but a little user myself, someone got me started calling it the CPU and I had to be taught otherwise. From others I'd heard "hard drive." I usually don't hold this against anyone (possible weakness of mine).
But yesterday was the first time I had heard it called "modem". Luckily this was in person so pointing helped me muddle it out.
