Story: Laptop-shooting tops computer mishaps poll

Most clients tell me they simply wish to throw their PCs out the window. House windows in the south of Spain have bars on them though. Laptops would fit nicely...

Laptops with sherry spilt on them smell nice. They don't type well though. Nor do laptops doused in wine by girlfriends.

Fanta Orange might be great for those hot summer days, but it isn't a good coolant for laptops.

I once had a client whose PC's powerpack was blown when the worksite it was at detonated the demolitions charges used to pull down a building.

There was one time I serviced a non-printing printer and found a walnut shell inside...

Another printer wouldn't feed paper: removing the credit card shuffled among the papers solved the problem.
