Hello,

As some of you know I RMA-ed (sent back) my dead Asus A8N32-SLI motherboard
(to iComputers) and today I got a new one. (Took less than a month to get a
new one).

Meanwhile I have been using another new motherboard.

So now I got a backup in case my current one fails. So it's just like I
planned two motherboards ;) :) hehehe.

Nice service !

Bye,
Skybuck.

No joke...I usually have about 16 -22 spare computers .
When I'm down to a dozen or so...I start getting nervous :)

He broke his motherboard when he misunderstood a website discussing
computer sex...
 
Provided the one they sent you isn't dead.

Perhaps you were meaning he should try a little harder for a Darwin
Award?

Still, minding my own early abuse of some helpless electronic devices
.....

OTOH, I've been well-known to disassemble many a device (electronic or
not) with merely the vain *hope* I might be able to reassemble them in a
working fashion. But then, in rebuttal: What did I have to lose, if the
device-in-question was destined for the landfill in any case?

More often than not I *have* resurrected some pretty dead items just by
poking around with various tools and *trying*. Sometimes the tools were
just screwdrivers and eyeballs, while other times fancy scopes
logic-probes, IC readout devices, and multimeters were the
tools-of-choice. It always helps if you can get a schematic or plan of
the thing you're working on; though these days such things are not only
unavailable but completely unobtainable, more often than not. Then you
have to rely on past knowledge of how such items usually work; and
sometimes external specifications ... if *those* are even available.

But that doesn't meet the requirement for a Darwin Award of removing
oneself from the gene-pool by an act of incredible stupidity.
(Note: One does not strictly have to be *dead* to win the award; just
renedered incapable of reproducing. The unhandy fellow in the picture
doesn't seem to qualify.)

No ... More like *this* guy:
