Life is too short for man pages, but occasionally much too short without them

If you’re not already reading xkcd, why the hell not?

After getting home from Pittsburgh yesterday, I discovered that my desktop computer has developed a problem while I was away. It no longer thinks it has a DVD writer or a second hard drive, and takes forever to boot.

I tried checking the physical connections between the two drives and the motherboard, and between the drives and the power supply, but they seem to be solid. This means the desktop is headed into the shop this afternoon. Drat!
