There seems to be something of a "your own stupidity" fail. If anything 
goes wrong, you look for somebody to pin liability on.

Of course, you could circumvent it. Bid for and buy the computer, cut 
yourself on the bare wire sticking out of where the power cord used to 
be, then call BGHBloomer... ;-)

Is it "I know better than you" or more a case of "Nope, I ain't takin' 
no heat for this"?

<sigh> Yeah...
