Vacuum? by Trusty+Penfold · 2002-10-18 04:52 · Score: 5, Funny

They have vacuum tubes on the motherboard for 5.1 surround sound.

Are they crazy?!? Everyone knows that sound doesn't travel through a vacuum.

No wait, wasn't he Darth Maul's second cousin?
No, I'll get it. Doesn't it attach to the Incus and transmit computer sounds to the ear drums?
Oh, I give up.
