Talk Computer morgue

this gallery (in German) has some excellent pics of dead PC components, user "fixes" and other disasters.

My personal favourite is the MS Works disc, in the "Sontiges" section

That open case with the attack of the dust bunnies? I brought home a computer from work that looked like that. Four years worth of dust we had to blow out of that thing.

Hey Sweeper, that's true, one of my friends who never used thermal paste before generously pasted a 1200 T-Bird which cost $600 back then.

All the little connectors on the Athlon's top were shorted and it burned.
