   "Honey, are you coming?"
   "Just a minute, dear, I just have to save this game!"
   Ker-chunk, Ker-chunk, Ker-chunk, ....

   "Oh, Oh..."

   So there goes the hard drive, whip out the Apple Care
   warantee, and guess what!  IT EXPIRED YESTERDAY!


   Does anybody out there know where Apple puts the date of
   delivery?  Is in an EPROM cleverly disguised as a 
   capacitor?  A special reserved word on every hard disk
   they sell?   My congratulations goes to the Apple whiz
   who thought of this scam ;-)
