Guess what’s in the box

I paid Fry’s a visit today in search of a new keyboard for myself. Actually a new keyboard for Kim whose keyboard I took apart and pilfered a few parts from to fix my own. Luckily, she’s in Utah till Monday evening which gives me a few days to find a suitable replacement.

I found the keyboard section at Fry’s. I noticed that the display keyboards are not a good indicator of where one would find the boxed equivalent. Several times I found the keyboard I was after but it came bundled with a wireless mouse, jacking up the price.

I eventually located a keyboard that should please Kim. But it wouldn’t be a Fry’s visit without noticing at least one unintentionally funny sign. In the keyboard section, just below a very large stack of boxed keyboards that had been stripped of outer box so you couldn’t tell what was inside was this sign: “Please do not open the boxes”.

X-ray vision required.
