Then I write all of these specs down on a sheet of paper and stroll over to Big Dave’s House O’Data. Then I wad the paper up into a ball and fling it in a random direction. Whatever computer it lands closest to, I tell the clerk, ‘I’ll take that one.’
I’ve always had good results, except the one time they refused to sell me the cash register.

"Mommyboards"
Do you have one of those old timey cash registers with the push buttons?
No, but we have an antique cash till without any buttons at all. My wife may have an antique mechanical cash register at her shop, but I’m not going to wake her up to ask.
