electronic computer instructions
Plural: electronic computer instructions
These are instructions that teach you how to assemble an electronic computer. All you need is these as a guide, and the parts. Well, the guide, the parts, and a bunch of time, a bunch of tools, a lot of cursing, several bandages, and a kid who's a decade younger and light-years smarter than you to eventually do the assembly for you. Without needing the instructions, naturally.

Although this item has a proper auto-sell value, it cannot be recyclonized, digitized, fed to the goats, or deplicated.

• The build text ("bashing and smashing and crashing of the poor computer's parts") is suspiciously similar to the style of speech used by Gurgi in The Chronicles of Prydain by Lloyd Alexander.
