Ya know, sometimes it's not that dramatic.  In an office of a client of
mine, a girl used to have a PC (yeah, that was her first problem0) that
crashed constantly, at least once a day.  She was basically told to live
with it, so she did.  Then she moved her office around, and put the PC
on her desk, and it didn't crash on her for months.  Then when she got a
new PC, it was put on the floor, and had stability problems.  After it
was moved to on the desk, all was fine again.  Two machines that had
problems on the floor, and were fine on the desk.  There's nothing near
there that i know of that would cause such problems (they're a RV
manufacturer).  And that's not the only room in that building that has
strange problems like that.
