When Chinese computer geek Hu Chuang, 26, logged off for the last time, his family decided to erect an appropriate gravestone:
Chuang, 26, from Chongqing, south west China, was so potty about computers his family had a headstone carved for him in the shape of a monitor giving his dates of birth and death.
Stonemasons also included a keyboard, mouse and a camera with a picture of tragic Chuang to complete the tombstone tribute.
