Macho Guy’s company gave him a laptop to use specifically for the project he’s managing. I wonder if I should organize a pool to see if our friends and family can guess how long that laptop survives before it succumbs to the Kiss of Death. 🙂

He uses his cell phone one day and it’s broke. The last week he went into the Verizon store with his newest phone and they told him that they’ve only seen this problem twice in all their many years. I don’t like to let him near anything electronic because he just causes them to suddenly have problems.

I wish you the best with Macho Guy. You still have many years of computers ahead of you!

My experiences with Mr. Kiss of Death to Computers are only funny in retrospect. I can laugh about them after the fact, but when they are actually happening, they are usually terrifying and not the least bit funny. =:-0 Maintaining a sense of humor once the danger is over is the only thing that keeps me sane and keeps me from throttling him. 🙂

Hubs was the 1st in our house to discover computers. He & a bunch of geeks at work got all fired up over a TRS 80 so of course we had to have one, too. As soon as I learned about word processing, I was in heaven.

I have a cable with a combination lock securing my MacBook Pro to my desk in my home office. Macho Guy is leery of Mac computers, doesn’t know how to use the Mac OS and so hasn’t gone near my MacBook Pro or even touched it yet. Apparently, the Mac is Mr.Kiss of Death to Computers’ kryptonite. 🙂

Replacing Macho Guy was not an option. 🙂

I’m lucky, my husband rarely touches my computer, but more than once he’s “cleaned” his computer files only to discover that worthless file he removed wasn’t all that worthless. 🙂

We lost a TV and a computer to capricious lightning strikes – luckily, though, my husband doesn’t have the “Kiss of Death” issues yours seems to. 🙂
