Here we are making sure my roommate's computer works after replacing his power supply. :)

I don't see the humour, although I had a friend who used to have a computer without much of a case, so it pretty much looked like that anyway :)

Bah, not as many wires as there should be.

I once had an eviler situation - connecting a HD of one computer to another computer. I was only going to copy whatever data to the host computer before reformatting the HD in question, and preferred to not transfer it over the LAN for reasons I can't now recall.

So instead of removing the HD (which would mean unscrewing some screws, etc.) I just opened both computers and connected the power and IDE cable from the host computer to the HD in the second computer. I wish I had a camera, it looked like a 21st century heart transplant :)

Why cross the power over? Should just use comp1's power and comp2's IDE cable, then turn them both on :)

Everyone should have thumbscrews for their computer so they don't need to use a screwdriver to unscrew things!

I'd guess that the second computer doesn't have power for whatever reason...

All you need to do is plug it in and turn it on, nothing would actually have to be working. Unless the powersupply is shot :-/

Is that funny?

Don't remember... Didn't have enough free power outlets to plug in the second computer, I think.
