redeeman: and as i heard that, i thought "wtf is that guy thinking?!"
redeeman: and the store-guy said "sure, right this way"
redeeman: that was a very fucked up moment
Deanjo: Ya, USB should be renamed to Universal Power Plug
Deanjo: We need a USB powered Microwave that fits in 5 1/4 drive bays :P
