I was in world yesterday and my computer blew up. I had to go the ER and get a chunk of my hard drive pulled out of my skull. My question is: "is it possible that SL is the culprite behind this disaster?" I purchased a new PC and I am scared to run SL on it. Should i build a titanium encasing for my unit?

This is possible if the C4 /5boom script is brought out. I hope your skull heals nicely. I would recommend unobtainium for the casing though.

I seen a suspicious fellow walking by with a backback right before it happened. Dont worry about the scar, chicks dig scars. Are you sure i can't use 4mnaudtainium? |

Now you have crossed into the expertise area of Jake I'm afraid as suggested earlier by my colleague Taco Rubio.  _____________________

Well, mine has been overheating and crashing recently, but only when using SL.

O...M...G........! That wins the freakiest tech gadget of the year award! I thought a USB power coffee warmer was a bad idea...... I would also hate to see the shortcut keys it uses in Windows...... ctrl+alt+v perhaps? I also notice that it is a serial device, interesting as most newer PC's do not ship with serial ports anymore. Ok, I stop thinking about this now, I can already imagine the poseballs to go with it....  _____________________

A titanium covering for your unit might significantly reduce sensitivity in the covered area. Oh, sorry; wrong unit. _____________________
