KENT, OH- Local guy decides to shun both Mac and PC, and build his own computer with spare parts found in neighborhood dumpster.
"My hard-earned dollars mean a lot to me" claimed Douglass. "When I bring home the bacon, I don't like to waste it on crap like new technology. Besides, I'm saving all my money for a trip to Power Rangers Land, well, if they ever build it."
Douglass scrounged through a local dumpster, near the Kent State University dorms, for any spare parts he could salvage. "I took home everything... old Epson monitors, fried mother-boards, even this V-tech keyboard I found in a bag filled with old lettuce. People get rid of the best stuff!" explained Douglass.
After a stirring 20 straight hours of plugging and unplugging cables, soddering boards and circuits, and twenty packs of cigarettes later, Douglass had an operational computer.
Stated Douglass: "It takes forever on this thing to surf Tagged, but it's worth the wait. And I'm still trying to figure out how to install Oregon Trail."
