That reminds me of a tech support call I got maybe 25 years ago:  "Every 
time I try to print, my computer crashes!!!" ????? What ?????

I got to the site to find the power-hungry HP LaserJet II printer plugged
into the same tiny UPS that the computer was plugged into!!  Arrrgh!  
Sure, enough, the computer crashed every time they went to print!
