Hmmm. . . I wonder if it would be as entertaining to microwave this as it is to microwave an AOL CD.

Aaaaah.

Priceless. :-)

So, let me get this straight. You have this piece of plastic that you can put in a computer. The computer then reads the writing on the plastic, and that's what gets you on the internet?

BP: I think that's what they're getting at yeah.
CH: Sorry, I don't have a microwave in my computer at the moment.
DRW: "Priceless" made me go to ebay and check into that. As it turns out, some ass-hat is trying to sell a less-authentic version 2.5 for $25. http://cgi.ebay.com/AOL-2-5-Start-up-Floppy-Disc_W0QQitemZ120090944235QQihZ002QQcategoryZ182QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I still don't get it... Where are the tubes?

The tubes are located just above the "any" key near the intake manifold. :)
