"...so I went and pushed the reset button on the server, and tried reloading, and it still didn't work. So I unplugged it and replugged it; and now it wont do anything." Better yet: I had a call to "come replace a desktop system" that someone had been complaining about for a while. they'd opened the case and stomped on the innards a few times. Which wouldn't have been a thing but for the fact this was the sub-server for the Layout Dept's "Mac network" they insisted on having. It wasn't a good desktop because it was running fileserver and proxy and who knows what else for several others too... until it got stomped. The reason the machine had been there? They insisted on having their network all in office and "under their control". This server was up as a terminal with web browser etc on it because "there's no point in having a computer sitting here useless!" and it gave the Dept head a good feeling to have it on his desk. Even got to ask "Had you been taking backups?" They hadn't.
