  • Man Shoots Girlfriend’s Computer After Installing Windows Vista

    source

    Friday night in Columbia South Carolina, ex-law enforcement officer Ray Jackson lost his temper while trying to repair his girlfriend’s computer.

    After installing Windows Vista on the girlfriend’s 2 year old computer Jackson was trying to get some of her older programs to work with the new operating system. “He couldn’t get anything to work like it was supposed to”, said girlfriend Wanda White. “He just kept screaming at it and smacking the side of the computer”.

    White had heard enough cursing from her boyfriend and went next door to her friend’s apartment. After about 20 minutes White and her friend heard gun shots from the apartment where Jackson was working. “We both ran over there to see what was happening”, said White. When she opened the door there sat Jackson with his pistol in his hand. He had just shot the computer 5 times and missed once. The miss had gone into the neighbors apartment and the bullet was lodged into their refrigerator.Jackson is being held at the Corrections Department of S.C. His bail hearing will be held Monday morning.Courtesy of The State Paper.

    I'm wondering if he really shot the computer...or the monitor displaying Vista.

    That ought to make for one great Apple commercial however.
    Life is what you make of it...so please read the instructions carefully.

      or if he smacked the monitor or case.

      If he had a laptop, probably he'd throw it onto the ground.

          Mistake #1 (probably not enough memory to work well)

          Mistake #2

          And for a ex-law man to pull a gun in a non-life threating situation in a residential area, Mistake #3

          You ever shoot a larger caliber weapon?

          It's not hard at all to miss.

                Maybe Mistake #3: Going over there themselves instead of calling 911?

                    He missed one time.

                    Could be the recoil from rapidly pulling the trigger. Never shoot more than 3 bullets in rapid-fire with a semiautomatic weapon.

                      awww dats HELLA funny!


                      It's a rarity when someone gets frustrated when pointing a pistol at a computer that won't co-operate. Did he utter DO YOU FEEL LUCKY PUNK?

                      What would have made sense if he grabbed a BAT.
                      Shooting a computer = ANGER MANAGEMENT 101 for this guy.

                            Formatting the drive would have been a better payback.

                              Running ... towards ... gunshots?

                              What a novel concept!
