Hi Jen

Thought you might enjoy a funny computer tech story this guy came into a computer repair shop saying that his computer wasn't working and that he had cleaned it out with his vacuum cleaner. The Tech went white and when he opened the case all the capacitors had been knocked off the MainBoard the processor fan ripped off the heatsink really just total destruction the Tech apparently was in tears I am not sure whether they were of laughter or pain.
