Troubles with computers

I probably got one of the worst 1st april day jokes ever. My pc played it with me - video card crashed. After few days it got fixed and I was able to use my pc again, but at that moment I didn't really feel like laughing.

Then I started to think... I get small problems with computers too often...
~My flash kinda died on the day I had to hand in one of my papers at uni. I got the IT guys help me. They worked for hour with my flash and recovered the file I needed. I was really thankful to them, but as they told me it isn't their job to do something like this, I never came back...
~At some point my video card's coolers started to die. First change lasted for half a year, but every next one lasted less and less. Last one lasted longer... but that was rather big fan put on weird construction... luckily it lasted till the card died
~I learned that pulling wires/cards out and putting them back in can make computer work again, even if it refused before. I learned how pc is built cause of that....
~Ctrl+Alt+Delete - solves most of messed up things
~When your screen starts to turn pink, then you don't think it is cute. You know it is time to change monitor's cord/wire.
~I changed 4-5 headsets with in half a year and the shortest time one of them lasted was few days. 1st one - died one side of it, 2nd - mic died, 3rd - I suddenly stood up and quickly left, while I still had them on ears so it got split into two parts, 4th - I am still using and it has showed some defects already.....
