akidosaint Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Thats right i had my first biscuit in computer not in child problem so whats the worst thing you have discovered inside a case 1
tommej Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 I found about 12 empty crisp packets and a pair of scissors in one machine.
MK-2 Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 And there's me thinking a BICNIC is like a Brummie PICNIC 1
dobsonl Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 We had the foam of a chair in one of our computers - never worked out how it got in there.
theriver Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 I'm old enough to remember floppy drives, which used to accumulate all kinds of things - including on one memorable occasion the top portion of a print out of a child's CV. You know, the bit with the name on.
Robz Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 In my last place I found a cake and some biscuits in one PC - no idea how they got it in there though :/
Max_Power Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 I remember the days of floppy drives and the worst thing i ever found was a condom! Yes you read right, a condom un packaged and stuffed inside the floppy drive! Didnt care to see if it was used or not just binned it!
tech_guy Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Slice of pizza. Looked edible but I didn't want to risk it.
Jay_Jay Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Worst thing I've found in a PC was mouldy bread in the grill, this thing was sprouting all sorts.
Chris_Jones Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Potatoe in a Printer This begs the question, if you took thin slices of potato, could you make crisps in a laser printer?
SteseD Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 I've found a pencil behind the rollers of a printer once, plus some sultanas!.... the worst i've heard of is a dead frog in a PC case before...
featured_spectre Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Genuinely found some using a paper shredder as a potato ricer because (and I quote) "it had a big enough tub to do all the potatoes needed and its electric so needs less energy"
tech_guy Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 There's this famous one of the frog - I guess it croaked....
theriver Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 I remember the days of floppy drives and the worst thing i ever found was a condom! Yes you read right, a condom un packaged and stuffed inside the floppy drive! Didnt care to see if it was used or not just binned it! Umm, misguided attempt at virus protection? 2
CAM Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 They must have been small if using a floppy drive. And on Vimeo, I saw a guy who found an ant colony in his scanner. So he scanned it each day and made a timelapse video out of it.
synaesthesia Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Worst thing found inside a computer case. Hmm. An original Athlon motherboard and processor trumps any possible living (or ex-living) animal or fauna. I've only seen one in recent years and it nearly made me sick!
mikeingham Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Pencil shavings and hula hoops in a printer last week. NOT suprisingly it was in a staff workroom.
Gatt Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 They must have been small if using a floppy drive. Well it was a *floppy* drive...
Flatpackhamster Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 A number of my clients are farmers, so their machines are often full of a thin layer of dried, dusty cow dung.
