Retail store goodness

the real killer imo is coke on the desk, atleast 40% of the machines that got dumped together at my old job while there was an open bottle of coke on the desk came back 3-4 months later with randomly corroded parts :-/

of course it could just be that the boss used to buy the dodgiest parts from the dodgiest people who found them after they fell off the back of a stolen truck :-/

Ugh.. coke + computer parts = bad!

Oh, on that refusal to pay for RAM installation issue.. the guy was installing a pair of 32mb 72-pin Non-Parity SIMMs.

Ah, EXACTLY what the Best Buy employee told me they didn't sell when I was looking right at them in the locked display case. Very easy to install once I found someone willing to sell one.
