Marco's gadgets tend to work and not break.

david:

A lot of people seem to have constant issues with their phones, computers, printers, hard drives, and other technology breaking or failing. None of my technology ever breaks at the rate that I see from other people. Even though it’s a bit presumptuous, my best guess is that I just treat my electronics better than most people.
Totally agree, with one exception: Cameras.  Point-and-shoot cameras can take such a beating, and yet you often see people coddling them to the point that taking pictures is completely tedious.  There’s nothing more satisfying than whipping out a completely scuffed digital camera from you back pocket that you’ve used to take thousands of photos.  Sit on it, toss it in your purse, drop it out a car window, start recording a video and throw it at Marco, etc.

I fully expect to see a “thrown cameras at Marco” flickr/vimeo group! Topherchris? Now that you’re close enough?
