Here:

Quote: "dot matrix printer"

NO!
Quote: "Is it some sort of a Nvidia powered pc tower?"

ATi and nVidia are not related! Why would something say ATi if it had nVidia components in it!?
Quote: "Like a CD player that, urm, bling bling kids have?"

No.
Quote: "it's a monitor"

No... ATi make the thing that puts things on the monitor, not the monitor itself.

There is no rule about microscopic pictures. You could post a picture of a cell and ask someone to guess what kind of cell it is, but you can't expect anyone to guess the plant species by looking at a picture of a cell.

To qoute the first post that had the rules:
Quote: "Extreme close-up pictures of everyday things work quite well, but you can use any picture as long as it's not too specific (like you can't post a picture of a star and expect anyone to guess the star's correct name)."

IT wasn't microscopic. You could see that with a good magnifying glass.

Machine that runs infinite? Does that mean a perpetual motion machine?

I'll go with a tension stress machine thingy. You know, put a concrete block/ iron rod/ small animal into it and see it's breaking point.
