techrecoverySo I stopped by my old job to help out with a few things...
A while back I picked up a couple of 21" Dell monitors at a computer show. One for me and one for him. Today I see it's sitting on the bench. I asked him if it died, wondering if mine was soon to follow.
"No, the cat barfed down the top of it and the picture went nuts. I just turned it off really quick"
It fired up and worked fine today, but I wonder how it's going to smell when it warms up.

Date: 2004-12-31 09:01 am (UTC)There's a very old story about how an entire data processing facility (back in the 70s) would put the dust covers over the terminals at night, but leave them powered on. One night the security guard smelled smoke....
