No kidding - I've lost count of the number of PCs that undergo emergency surgery as soon as they enter the door of the outbuilding where we do our larger LAN parties.
Some of the funniest memories, though, are restoring to using in-game chat to attract the attention of the guy sitting right next to me, as his noise-cancellation headphones + loud music drowned me out, as well as my friend who showed up having just recieved his computer parts from Newegg an hour and a half before the LAN party.
So we immediately build his system, passed him a WinXP CD, and went back to gaming. Fun times, having a bunch of guys sitting around a computer case, building it, swapping stories, and then spending several hours playing games.
