<scromp> hard drives are the achilles heel of our industry
<scromp> well that and software
<nug> and battery life
<scromp> that's just a limitation, not a death star exhaust port
<nug> oh, I didn't know we were talking science fiction/fantasy science

<scromp> hard drives are like krypton exploding, except it happens all the 
damn time
<scromp> software is like the general maintenance state of the falcon
<scromp> shit just randomly breaking all the time
