A friend (recently) installed a brand new 64-bit system with a new you-beaut mobo, cpu, psu etc. Powered it up, installed the OS (which happens not to be openSUSE) - and his HD died :-( . Reason? His brand new psu was RS and "took out" the circuit board on the HDD (the 12V channel and all that). The psu was replaced and he managed to buy a replacement c/brd for the Maxtor HDD.
What's a "you-beaut"? What's "RS"? What's a "c/brd"?
Don't worry - it's Australian slang, not English!
with an international audience of users whose first (second and third) lingo is not english, i'd suggest to use as much non-slang as humanly possible..
it really won't take so much longer to type 'unbeatable', 'ratshit' or 'circuit board', and it will save *many* others from a lot of wondering what was meant.
