Geroge Doughty had it with his lap top. While working in his office in the back of his bar his lap top blue screened and doing what many of us think about he took it out to the front room, set it on the floor and fired of 4 rounds from his .357, picked up the carcass and hung it on the wall just under the Michelob Light chandelier. Later in the day a customer (probably a member of "people for the ethical treatment of computers") came in and asked about the dead puter on the wall, the bartender explained the demise and the customer doing his duty called the cops. Geroge was booked for felony menacing, reackless endangerment and prohibited use of a weapon. He spent the next 24 hours in jail. He is due in court next Wednesday.

yeah Phoenix, George said later he should have used a hammer.
Well, it's kind of like hunting. It's okay, but you don't have to decorate the mantle with the body parts.
Hmm - I once slapped mine - I was SOOOOOOOO ashamed I went and bought it a new mouse-pad.
nah - typical abuse pattern - called "buy-back" - I was more ashamed of buying the mouse-pad when I thought it through.... so now I use "Fury" as my mouse-pad.
Just today my husband said he had never heard me swear so much before I got a computer. Yep, I let 'er rip when I'm feeling homicidal; besides, I don't own a gun.
