A nightmare is up on youtube. At least it hits me that way, as a full time
disk person.

Well you'd better not watch this one, then. My old CD writer (which cost me
250 quid new) has burnt its last coaster. When its success rate dropped
from 30% to 0% of successful writes (yes, two disks in
three were dud,
from when it was six months old - prior to that it had been about 1 dud
in four), I
decided to put it out of our misery.

Nah, too boring! Next time let the sacred spirits of conan, the
barbarian, dominate you and do it with a sledgehammer! ;oD

(However, this is also fake/staged/not a real facility.)
