Smoke? I saw this tagline on a post I received in email. I like this explanation! "Every electronic device is manufactured with smoke stored deep inside... only a true genius can find a way to set it free." Alas, I'm not a true genius by this definition. Is anyone out there going to claim true genius status?? I thought so... |

False genius
I always find it amusing when writers put two words together that don't make a lot of sense. I wonder what "False genius" is?

Could that be someone that uses trickery to release the magic smoke?

Found the smoke
Many years ago, I plugged my Commodore 128 power supply into my Amiga 500 *hey the plug fit*. Once the magic smoke escaped, alas the computer was no more....sigh, those were the heady days of wonderment.

This is important: What flavor of genius does that make you -- "true" or "false"

You know there is no smoke
You know there is no smoke without fire

Electronics all have magic smoke without fire. That's the magic part of it.
