    A man in Colorado shot a computer with a gun in an alley 8 times after months of fighting with it. We've all been there I think..

    This was a regular occurrence (well, minus the guns) back when I was using PCs. I can totally relate.

    The only kind of shooting I can approve of.


    (though actually, don't shoot anything in a public or non-secluded area; it can cause a lot of fuss and there's always some level of danger)

    Gives a whole new meaning to "trouble shooting".

    There's this one time where I am near to do whatever this man did. I was working on my report and then the PC just crashed. That report was considered an exam and it was due later that day!

    If I were that guy, I'd be concerned about what those Blue Screens of Death were telling him. Everytime I've encountered one of those, it's been because of an error or some physical memory dump.
    I guess everyone's got a different approach to issues on their computer... Some harmoniously analyse and fix the issue; others just pop a cap in their inanimate asses.

    I saw that. Back about 15 years ago I had a buddy with a shooting rage in his housing development. I was working managing a PC store at the time. One time I had ordered these winmodems that totally blew. I took a case of them out to the range and set them up about 50 yards out. Then picked them off one by one with my 1903 Springfield.
