8 uses of a dead PC
Monday, May 8th, 2006Did I tell you I hate PCs? More on that later…
Meanwhile, with the laws on disposing of PCs tightening up, here are 8 good uses of a dead PC:-
-
A door stop – they make great door stops – simply slide them into position to hold any door open – be aware of fire regulations though
-
A massive paper weight
-
Take out the hard drive, smash open the outer case to reveal the splendid, shiny disk mechanism inside – guaranteed to be a conversation starter as it sits on your desk
-
A stool – tower cases are best
-
A weight – simply raise and lower the PC 20 times each day for lovely toned arms – yes, you too ladies
-
Start an alternative sexy underwear business by taking out the wires and ribbon cables and weaving them into interesting undergarments
-
Place the dead PC by your feet under the desk – when your PC goes wrong, kick the dead PC instead
-
Two dead PCs make a great pair of bookends – especially if they are the same make
To find out just how well protected you are, try the GRC test. This is normally done by total geeks but anyone can do it. Follow these instructions: -
