Repairing arc-scorched circuit boards, moving a car subwoofer indoors, the endless bus-speed puzzle, and a man who'd like a large knob.
Motherboards and Memory
Fake flash drives, excessively-nested directories, four-wire fans, shotgun debugging, and grommets.
OS
I just wrote a blog post about a couple of Australian "economic stimulus" programs which Aussie readers might find interesting. (My apologies to readers who already subscribe to my blog's feed.)
Other
It's possible to back up computer data onto ordinary paper. And it's less silly than it sounds!
Motherboards and Memory
In which I plumb new depths of donation-drive audacity, and irritate you even more by putting another blog-post-link in my dansdata.com feed!
CPUs
Armorsuit vs server case, ionic computer fans, de-blinging an LED fan, and the truth about laptop power supplies.
Cases and Coolers
Computers, if you ask me, are currently about as easy to use as the written word was in the sixth century AD.
OS
Blackberry Bold

Other
Huge CPU coolers, EPS12V adapters, the evergreen RAM disk, and clicky keyboards on modern PCs.

Other
Upgrading the right thing, the Case of the Vanishing Power Management, boot-sector brain surgery, and funny-shaped batteries.
OS
PSU hybridisation, Bluetooth plus KVM equals irritation, clicky keyboard options, and the persistence of outboard power bricks.
Peripherals
Real RAID and "fakeraid", SSD connectors, and that rarest of creatures, a bizarre and insoluble problem with Vista.
Storage
RAID
Repairing arc-scorched circuit boards, moving a car subwoofer indoors, the endless bus-speed puzzle, and a man who'd like a large knob.
