| Meanwhile, as ordered, fish installs the Windows server. It sits on top of a
| cabinet, plugged in and running. True, it's not actually connected to the
| network or being used for anything productive, but it's running.
|
| And when the managers come in for a tour of the server room, they see their
| Windows server, are satisfied and never return.
|
| "The box crashes once in a while — it's not actually doing anything, but it
| still crashes — so we just reboot it when we notice," fish says. "Since it's
| not officially monitored, it doesn't count in our downtime stats.
|
| "Far as I know, it's still there, wasting electricity. But it's what they
| wanted."
