Best one that I have seen so far was when a mate thought he would have a go at building his own PC without any help from me (I did offer). Then asked me to have a look to see why it wasn't working.
I said (trying not to sound sarcastic) " Well all the wires are in correctly, all peripherals installed correctly as well .... hmmm ( scratches chin thoughtfully) Ah! here's the problem a k*ob-head has screwed the motherboard directly to the chassis and not use the spacing mounts. Looks like you need a new mother-board with all the trimmings."
Let's say I installed his replacement mother-board :).
Moral of that: Read the manuals and goto college to get a NVQ Level 3 in how to use a screw driver.
@D4NM4N: I finally found away so BlitzMax will work correctly on a 64bit version of Ubuntu
