Title: Ants in my......keyboard?
Post by: Meatwad on August 21, 2005, 11:34:19 AM

My space bar kept sticking, so I takes my keyboard and bashes it vertically like against the desk. You know what comes out??




ANTS!


What the heck are they doing in there. Their not the big ones, but them little tiny black ones. Guess I squished some, no wonder the spacebar got stuck. Freakin ants

Was gonna say stop eating at the keyboard. but that works just as well

Although it does give a more literal meaning to the term "computer bug"

You do realize that it is the original meaning...

At Harvard one August night in 1945, Grace Murray Hopper (Adm USN) and her associates were working on the granddaddy of modern computers, the Mark I. "Things were going badly; there was something wrong in one of the circuits of the long glass-enclosed computer," she said. "Finally, someone located the trouble spot and, using ordinary tweezers, removed the problem, a two-inch moth. From then on, when anything went wrong with a computer, we said it had bugs in it." Hopper said that when the veracity of her story was questioned recently, "I referred them to my 1945 log book, now in the collection of Naval Surface Weapons Center, and they found the remains of that moth taped to the page in question."
