Spiderman, is that you?

I found this little critter crawling around near my computer.  My wife saw it first and notified me.  My son tripped out.  I grabbed the camera and took a pic.  My son wanted me to print it out, so I did lol.

Custom computer builders around the world: PLEASE do not do this!

If you recently got into building your own computer because you thought you were cool and hip and can build a computer without the proper knowledge, then please, before you build or if you’ve already built one, please just do me a favor and yourself a favor and do not do this.  Look at the picture to the left.  This person who built this computer forgot the rest of the screws that screw the motherboard into the brass standoffs.  These are vital so that the motherboard does not short out or cause any other electrical damage to the other components.

This person no longer has a working computer all due to this major incident that could have easily been avoided.  Take my word of advice and do not do this!  Make sure you screw the motherboard down tight and ALL holes have been utilized.
