# big room; Nils and Jaakko on sofa, Bell in chair;
# Open boxes in front of N+J
[Panel 1]
[Nils]
Hmm. When did I last
actually NEED an ISA card?

[Jaakko]
I think I have a box that...
no, it died of Y2K.

[Nils]
And THAT was obsolete when
I was given it. Five years
ago. And I haven't had
it out of the box since.

[Elizabeth]
Hullo you two! What are you up to?

[Panel 2]
[Nils]
Spring cleaning.

[Elizabeth]
But it's not
spring. Here OR
in South Africa.

[Bell]
Don't discourage him! You
haven't seen the stack of old
computers on the fire escape.

[Nils]
They were good machines,
but they done got old...

[Panel 3]
[Nils]
What's THIS? Seriously,
what is it for? If I
ever knew, I don't now.

[Jaakko]
Token Ring. Obsolete
even by MY standards.

[Elizabeth]
I'll have that. We're still
using Token Ring at the library.

[Nils]
Jislaaik!

[Panel 4]
[Nils]
Oh, that reminds me,
I need a maintenance
window for flattening
the network.

[Elizabeth]
Any time I'm at
work. I don't leave
the laptop here.

I trust there's
some POINT
to all this?

[Nils]
Just seemed like a good idea
all of a sudden, so I thought
I'd take advantage of it.

[Jaakko]
And nothing to do with
the computerfall in
the attic yesterday...
