You know you're a geek when you turn your keyboard upside down and shake it to rustle up a quick snack.

So each time we would simply drill a hole through the walls and stick a cable through...
Back in the mid 90's, I had all the network cables running through our house duct taped to the ceiling. It didn't look pretty, but it kept our rabbits from chewing on them

A) Power outuput is 220v, instead of 110v
B) You can die more easly from a 110v shock, because it has much more intensity than current supplied at 220v
C) European users are smart enough not to get their fingers on the power socket
