    The Random Tip Thread

    I thought I'd start a thread for random tips about anything really. You know the kind of thing you get in newspapers etc. Not sure if it's a good idea but I'll see how it goes...

    Don't urinate into the wind

    "Caution: HOT!" means caution, hot.

    "Do not cover hole" on a HDD means, do not cover the hole.
