| dbo:abstract |
In amateur radio and computing, a boat anchor or boatanchor is something obsolete, useless, and cumbersome – so-called because metaphorically its only productive use is to be thrown into the water as a boat mooring. Terms such as brick, doorstop, and paperweight are similar. (en) Boat anchor (geschrieben auch Boatanchor) ist ein nicht nur unter Funkamateuren verbreiteter Spitzname für besonders voluminöse und schwergewichtige elektronische Geräte, die im Deutschen zuweilen auch in wörtlicher Übersetzung als Bootsanker bezeichnet werden.
