So... what else do you all do when say, you get the red ring of death, or your computer is in the shop, or the power goes out, or your parents bann you from all electronical devices for the day and tell you to go get a job?

Me? Varsity swimming, varsity track, and my horse... and snowboarding... (and thank the gods for hand-helds <not being banned at school>)

    Worrying is about as effective as chewing gum to solve algebra

    Typically I'll slip into a coma until technology is returned to me.

    However, since I am my computer 'shop' and I've never encountered RROD that haven't been my fault (There's only been one), it's not a frequently occuring thing.

    Either the coma thing, or I break out the soldering iron and add lights to things (My original Xbox controller for one). I like glowy controllers :B

          I guess. I have a soldering iron, but I'm not sure where it is. I should look into doing it more. It would take up time I guess.

              That's true. i don't think I can solder in my dorm right now though, so it will have to wait until summer and next year.

              I usually just hit it untill the connection works again. I pinched an old CRT off rubbish throwout but lately it starts distorting and going purble. A few spanks and voila. I could open it up and see if I can fix the connection, but I don't want to fuxx it some more looking through cable spaggetti for a loose join.

                See, with a CRT, I can understand not wanting to try and repair it.

                You need to have some serious staying power with monitor repairs (I'd lose my rag and set fire to it).

    my school confiscates electronics, and if you are a kid the teacher doesn't like, they keep the item. (they are not OBLIGATED to give it back)
    Some teachers are quite proud of the $$ they make selling confiscated items to other students

      Our school did more or less the same, except we could get it back if our parents went to the office.

      ..They sell your stuff?

      Is there some school rule that allows them to effectively steal your belongings?

        they have a rule in the code of conduct that says any items confiscated are under the teachers discretion. they can return them if they want, but are under no obligation to do so.

    If my console isn't turned on, and if I'm not playing WoW, then I'm usually doing homework, at class, eating, at the job, or sleeping, or doing a combination of them. However, if I'm not playing WoW or my 360 when I get the chance, then I'm coding or doing something on the web.

    Read. Hang out at my boyfriend's, (Not because him and his roommates have two Wiis, an old nintendo, five computers and a PS3, I swear. >>), I like swimming but only when other people aren't around, pacing back and forth until I get my computer again.
