Sacrificing things to fix computers could be a way forward. Maybe a small cut for a phone or i-Pod. Broken arm for a desktop. Black eye for a monitor. You could even sacrifice a virgin or three for an impressive server of piece of kit ....

Maybe a small cut for a phone or i-Pod. Broken arm for a desktop. Black eye for a monitor.

Imagine if it got nicked "yep, that's mine officer, that's a piece of my lower intestine right there." Monkey - Has to be human, has to come from the owner of the PC. I don't make the rules. Andy - Computers are, without doubt, a menace. Ashleigh - Nice work :) Captain – I never thought of that; DNA coding your machine is a great idea.

Ashleigh – Nice work :)

We can't have people going around bleeding all over the place! Did you report the incident? Was there a Risk Assessment in place? How can you be so relaxed about this? You could have lost an ARM!!!! Honestly, you'll be trying to play conkers next and that is just DEADLY! I’m sure these things should be BANNED if they create a DANGER to Society.

Or maybe the blood from an ox? Certainly less painful (unless the ox kicks you of course) and means that you're not whittling away bits of your own body. Don't forget that you can't grow a finger back once it's gone! Surely this would be far easier if you used, say, chicken blood? Or maybe the blood from an ox?

I like to think of it as DNA marking my builds and given how many build I've done that a lot of my DNA out there :) Glad to sdee you're use teh AC case - I really like mine as you know. You'll have to let us know the rest of the system spec - CPU, RAM, graphics, HDD etc. Mark Dan,
