Rich Anderson is an instructor at Dunwoody College. He loves teaching, digital photograph, canoeing, backpacking, and rock climbing.

He's also put together this gallery of humorous images showing a "wild and crazy hacker utilizing his IBM laptop in weird ways."

Warning: using your laptop in any of these ways is likely to damage the laptop.

Drape a Gladwrap roll over your head and tape it to the laptop to work in the rain.
