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! As an American, I have only a vague idea about the first being sarcastic for "beauty" of a (cheap CJK design) motherboard. The next is probably 'real s..t' (cheap junk motherboard) and the last (Maxtor) circuit board. Gidday, mate! Not bad ......
"You beaut" is derived from "You Beauty", meaning marvellous, unbeatable (sometimes written u-beaut).
Good guess on RS, but it's probably rats..t (one word) rather than "real". HS would invoke horse, with much the same meaning.
Circuit board would be right.
But what isn't ever advisable is to come the raw prawn!
You're right, cobber, throw that raw prawn on the barbie! :-D
