| yea, felt it at work and it was a little destructive. it somehow knocked out the ethernet interface on one of our on-air machines, so it was a bit of a scramble to get it back up quickly. *pushes glasses back up* |

'tis weird cause both (brand new) dells in my office shutdown, while an old ibm netvista stayed on like nothing happened. i guess these newer power supplies are more sensitive? thats the only logical reason i can think of |
