Heheeee, that gives a whole new definition to the term "Booting up a computer".<br><br>That really must have been a <i>Hard Drive</i>.

[Gizensha]

I like the fact the way the monitor has shattered over the boot makes the piece look surreal. Almost like the toe of the boot was put through from the other sidewith the main body of it stuck onto the toe.

Hey, that looks just like my "Rover" computer, the one I'm typing on right now (IBM Thinkpad 600 something)<br><br>. . . the one I've put three screens, a keyboard, a new hard drive, and memory in . . .<br><br>sort of like Lincoln's axe!<br><br>I guess I know what to do with it once it really gives up the ghost!
