I've been stabbing at power on pins on slot one motherboards (thats OLD for non nerds) all night trying to build a couple rubbish boxes for my flatmates so I could split my hefty internet bill 4 ways to no avail.
I am ready to throw away these pieces of rubbish. but I had a thought. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_UfiLkIz_Cg)
8 motherboards, on fire, in a microwave. on video.
apart from *obvious safety concerns..... your thoughts?
*30 m extension cord, outside, lead cup. fire extinguisher. video camera.

Are the bits that clip into the slots on a motherboard called fatherboards? And if not, why not?

If you are a sick Upper Hutt lad you may know that you can catch live horseflies and put a pin though them (they dont die!) then you can put them In a microwave and turn it on to see what happens!
That is sick and cruel tho and should never be done.
Flies have rights too, and we shouldn't forget them ljust coz they ain't fluffly and cure like young lambs.

Hahaha, flies are funny.
If you’re a sick young Rotorua chap, you would know that you if catch flies (blow flies were the best) and super glue really light string or cotton to their butts, they made great indoor kites, no wind required. Sort of like those buzzy bee thingy’s that dentil nurse gave you, but these really did fly although probably weren’t that clean. Flies tug war was always good for a laugh.
Just my 2 cents worth about flies and absolutely nothing to do with recycling computers and microwave ovens
