[url=http://www.rinkworks.com/stupid/cs_abuse.shtml]Computer Stupidities[/url] Fact: Boston Computer Museum sells chocolate bars shaped like floppy disks. Fact: Three year old kids see daddy boot his computer using a floppy to play games. Fact: Computers are warm inside...even some quite expensive computers. I don't want to talk about it.

Ah, floppies...
I remember having to rely on them.
I knew not of pngs at the tie, so I thought the best way of saving my bmp pics was to put them in MS Word documents, then copy them into Paint xd
It was annoying having to re-format them at times, meanign I had to erase all data on them.

Fact: Three year old kids see daddy boot his computer using a floppy to play games. Fact: Computers are warm inside...even some quite expensive computers. I don't want to talk about it. Oh god... Just read through the page. Some people do crazy things to their computers. Another one: Quote: I've worked in a software store for a couple years now. I've had more than person irate that we sold them a Playstation CD that doesn't work on a computer, a computer CD that doesn't work on a Playstation, and even someone who wanted Windows 95 for the Playstation. But none of these compare to this one user: On Friday, a man came in, carefully browsed the store, and purchased a brand new copy of James Bond 007 for the Nintendo 64. I sold him a strategy guide to go with it at a 20% discount and sent him happily on his way. I happened to be working the next day when he stormed back in. He spotted me and came running down the store, vaguely resembling a freight train. "You idiot! This" -- shoving the game in my face -- "doesn't work in my system! I couldn't make it fit at all! And I just brought the system brand new, so it's a bad game, and I WANT MY MONEY BACK BECAUSE YOU'RE SELLING BAD PRODUCTS!!!" Well, it was within our seven day return policy, so I calmly accepted the package and proceeded to open it to make sure it was still in saleable condition. To my great astonishment, it had apparently been neatly trimmed down to around 3 1/2 inches with some sort of saw. "Siiiir..? What happened to this game?" "Nothing! I just cut it to fit in my Compaq! It should work -- I just bought it!"

That's why I stay the HELL away from anything on my computer that doesn't need to be tampered with.
There are somethings man wasn't meant to tinker with.
