Reminds me of the story of Golgafrincham from the hitchhiker’s guide to the galaxy books:

The planet Golgafrincham creatively solved the problem of middle managers: it blasted them in to space.

Golgafrinchan Telephone Sanitisers, Management Consultants and Marketing executives were persuaded that the planet was under threat from an enormous mutant star goat. The useless third of their population was then packed in Ark spaceships and sent to an insignificant planet.

That planet turned out to be Earth.

Same on the computer thing, but I feel that knowing how to tear a computer (or anything, really) apart reduces the “I don’t think I can do this” threshold a bit. Not having a choice also helps, as in “Oh, the turbo died and all the shops say it’ll cost more than the car is worth to replace? Guess I’m learning how to swap a turbo.”

Don’t forget your purity seals!
