Hi!
I don't know if this "joke" is new (so please forgive me if I don't renew
anything to some of you), but if you want to see something good:
1) Go to google's site.
2) Write there: "Go to hell" (with the quotes!)
3) Press on "I'm feeling lucky"
Enjoy... :)

Did you try a simple "eject" command, and/or to read CDs from it? SCSI
