Throwback Thursday: That WOULD explain it!

INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Support pilot fish gets a call from a user whose computer won't boot
"Going through the basics, I quickly determined that it wasn't a boot problem, but probably something a bit more basic," says fish."Is the
computer plugged in" fish asks
Yes, user tells him
"Is the power strip turned on" Yes
"Does the power indicator turn on when you press the power button on the computer" No."Did you do a normal shutdown the night before" fish
asks."No," user says, "I just unplugged the computer."Fish: "Why would you do that"User: "There was smoke coming out of the computer, and it
quit working."Fish: "So let me get this straight
Yesterday, the computer was on fire and you didn't call
Today, first you actually plug the thing back in, and then you call because you can't get it to boot"
