[TheForge] Re: O.T. tool humor

[Mike Linn]

This is sorta like when my brother gave me an HP injket printer. All it 
needed was a power pack/cord. I called HP and spoke to a very nice customer 
service rep. For the replacement part for the printer they wanted $125 
ouch!!, she did a little digging and found that for the power pack ordered 
with its own p/n it only cost $3.75 with free shipping no less.... guess 
which part number I ordered?
