Dear Hardware Hackers,

The ethernet cable to this computer - m66-080-16 - has now grip at the 
transiever (sp?).  The transiever is located on the floor underneath the 
adjacent computer.  When a spastic person is located at the adjacent computer
they tend to shake the cable loose.  Therefore knocking my computer off line
and resulting catastrophic loss of data while in the middle of a very long
report.  Please fix this problem so no other civilians question why this
computer might randomly go off-line.

Thank you,

J. Paul Marqurdt
