Ok well, simply, I had a fire at my residence last night. It wasn't a big fire, but it was enough to cause damage to many things of mine including my computer. So with it not working, I cant get on Second Life! As some of you know I can barely afford to pay for Second Life. I'm not going to be paying for something I can't use so if this issue isn't solved soon, I'm going to have to end my Second Life.

We'll see how this goes in the coming days.

Man that sucks the big one - Did you have house content insurance or anything? Do you know what parts of the computer are damaged?

If its water damage, chances are it will be fine in a few day (i dunked my VAIO in water once and it still works (it WAS off at the time of dunking though))

If its smoke damage, I'd bet only the hard drive is toast which you can replace. I dunno :/

And if its totally melted, you can take it to an art gallery and claim it is a protest against modern man's excessive reliance upon technology, win teh big buck and get a new putar.
