Why does the computer in your photo need a STEERING WHEEL? Where is it supposed to be going?

"Nice post."

Thanks. Being the modest fellow that I am, I accept all gratuitous acknowledgments for something I merely "borrowed" from other sources and posted herein to inflate my perceived brilliance and acumen. LOL

I’m bringing my ASUS eeePC through a TSA checkpoint on Thursday

I've taken several international trips through Newark and ATL with my EEEPC without an issue.

That's because that's a famous hoax picture of a submarine control with a printer and TV 'shopped in.

Oh. I thought I was finally getting a glimpse of the creaking, elderly computers that run the company where I work. I'm told they're steam computers, but I don't think so; they don't run that well.

I miss my Sony Flig.
(It had over 180 gig)
Until one day
It met the TSA,
And now I'm staring down Bubba in the brig.

At the very least, you'd think that they might have sen one of the numerous TV commercials or magazine ads Apple put out for the thing.
