[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 935732, member: 24098"] I hate to break it to you, but you can not fix "stupid". There is no amount of engineering that can make any device absolutely safe, regardless of how poorly it's been handled or cared for. I've said this before and it bears repeating. This can and does happen to laptops by ALL manufacturers. It's a safe bet that you'll never encounter it if you use some care and caution in handling it and also where you store it. Every day our environment and the things we interact with introduce a fair amount of risk. The controls you put in place are what helps you to mitigate that risk. Unfortunately, every once in awhile, this sort of thing happens and for no good reason other than a drop of solder in the wrong place - a defect that could occur in any factory anywhere. Then again, an unseen meteorite, the size of Rhode Island could be approaching our planet now and strike tomorrow, wiping out life as we know it. [/QUOTE]
