    Sadly, i had a person on the phone telling me that he could not get his computer started...he had just rearranged furniture - went ot use computer - it would not start...

    he had plugged the power strip into itself.


    BUT

    that was not as bad as the woman that called because her monitor went out...i asked her to check the cables - she said she couldn't see because it was dark...yup, her power was out!
