The PC Filled up

I used to support a Library network. The only PC's allowed to connect were the stupidly expensive one provided by the vendor whilst these were very pretty they were 2 1/2 times more expensive than an IBM PC.

We kept getting calls asking for new boot disks from remote branch library. At it was 40 miles away we just kept sending replacements until eventually we got a call saying the PC was broken. When the engineer attended site he found the PC chassis contained a stack of disks that had been inserted in the gap between the drives. This became such a common problem (libraries tend to have lots of part time staff) We ended up 'modifying' all the beautifully sculpted PC's by sellotaping over the gap
