I had these two Irish flatmates. Nice guys ..... but they hadn't seen that much tech stuff growing up in Cork.
I convinced them an old ZX81 was TV remote control.

Had a pair of guys turn up once......at my flat, one a punk on speed, the other was basically catweelze.
The had a big bag with them, and were celebrating. They'd recently broken into offices down the road and stolen all of the computers, without monitors.
Their joy was cruelly cut short by yours truly once they had emptied their booty over my living room floor.
They had stolen VDU keyboards - as my Amiga (the only computer they'd ever seen) was all built into the keyboard, weren't all computers like that?
They dumped them in my garden, shortly before returning to the offie to see if they could get the money back on half a bottle of wine.
