If your PC dies in three years, it isn't anything it did wrong! C'mon VoIP boy, buck up and close your compy's cornhole! Firewall! Scanner! Traffic monitor! Do it to it!

Man I drink too much caffeine.

Alittle Duct tape, Some glue, Some wires and a touch of TLC (Beating the crap out of the case) and my computer is working... Yeah!

But I am only running on bare essentials... only 1 HD, normal CD-Rom and there are only 2 websites I have allowed access too... Take a guess.
