However, using a credit card is quite a good idea since it doesn't get your hands dirty :-) bye, Tillmann By: biff (IP: 81.151.133.*) Written on: 30-03-2005 00:23 HI I USE MY FINGER ALL THE TIME WHEN BUILDING PC`S AND NEVER HAD ANY TROUBLE . IF YOU ARE WORIED ABOUT THAT USE A RUBBER GLOVE . IF YOU SEND ME YOUR CREDIT CARD I WILL TRY IT ON MY NEXT BUILD (DONT FORGET YOUR PIN No TOO)
