    Talking 1002 uses for duct tape?

    A customer brings in a computer claiming it was making a buzzing sound. Upon removing the cover I found that the previous owner had tried to duct tape the cpu heatsink/fan to the chip. Well, thwe crusty tape failed to hold and the sound was the upsidedown fan on the bottom of the box. I looked a little more in the box and found duct tape hoding the cd-rom drive inplace also.
