I used to not only mess around with the inside of my computer when its on, but I would actually plug/unplug the power cable/IDE cable from drives when the system is running. I am still amazed the only thing I ever destroyed was a cheap floppy drive (up in smoke). I also used to take out PCI cards while the system was on and very rarely screwed them in. my first motherboard was only screwed down to the case with 2 screws, so whenever I would bump the case the motherboard would short out (which happened allot!). At times with my first machine, the system would not post so my solution was to kick it repeatedly until it worked (and it did). Although I never figured out exactly why my computer did this I suspect it may be from the frequent "short outs"! I also learned to always use ESD because have fried countless sticks of generic ram due to fat fingering and not using ESD.
The funniest thing I have done though is when I was at a LAN party, a friend of mine left his computer unlocked so I quickly edited a copy of explorer.exe and replaced his Explorer with the edited out. When he came back and sat down at his computer, his start menu greeted him by calling him a "Fucking Jew"(I replaced the word "start", and Jew was the kids nickname), then when he opened the start menu he saw nothing but fat black cocks lining the left side of his start menu!
But to get back to hardware, in high school I had a friend who used to rip his old hardware apart and LITERALLY eat parts of them (he ate the memory off his geforce2 pro). This kid also once took a baseball bat and put it through an old monitor he had, and to this day it is still stuck in there...
I think I have seen this happen to me, there have been a few times where my firewall gets SLAMMED with packets from UDP game servers. This is just another reason why I hate UDP...
All these advancements in technology and supermans still cant walk, i mean its fricking superman. I say they need to get more people dedicated to getting superman to be able to walk again.
Sounds to me like this is just another ploy by apple to get the sales up from what is almost non-existant now(relitivly speaking of coarse) Maybe what apple should do is stop trying to redesign the case, and start redesigning the way there computers operate.
I dont know...I just work here, oh wait....no I dont...

I know this is gonna be smacked down as flamebait but... i think that if apple were to manufactur and market these "Macs", they would sell better than any apple computer in history. I know I would buy one...
I completely agree, except for the fact that I have thrown a number of LAN parties that had both chicks and beer, infact almost everyone of my LAN parties have had both of the above noted party items. but in my humble opinion, I believe that LAN parties without the above noted items should be called "Sleep Optional Gatherings".

Actually wouldn't it be infinite polygons with infinite color at an irrelevant frame rate?
Are you looking at my bum, you cheaky monkey!
