[Panel 1]
[Nils]
Have you seen this freebie that came
with my latest computer bits order?

[Ginny]
Oh, they're letting you have things
delivered to the office again?

[Nils]
Well, technically they aren't, but
Sipho in the post room likes my beer.

[Ginny]
Bribery and corruption. Excellent.
So what have you got there?

[Panel 2]
[Nils]
It's a memory cooler.

[Jaakko]
Huh?

[Nils]
Sorry, an Xtreme Copper
Memory Cooler.

[Jaakko]
Oh, Xtreme.

Well, that makes ALL the difference.

[Panel 3]
[Nils]
Apparently it's a heat sink
you shove on your memory
to stop it overheating.

[Ginny]
Have you ever suffered
from overheating memory?

[Nils]
Only when I think about
the last trip to the cash
and carry with Jaakko.

[Jaakko]
Ahem.

[Nils]
No, not that I'd noticed...

[Panel 4]
[Ginny]
Ah, I see. A solution
for no known problem.

[Jaakko]
Surely if your memory were
overheating the rest of
the computer would be too?

[Nils]
I just throw in extra fans anyway.

[Jaakko]
Yes, but we don't all have
attics to baffle the noise.

[Nils]
Which reminds me, Sipho said if you
don't pick up your bales of sound
insulation foam he's going to eBay them.
