    Just when you thought your day couldn't get any worse...



    I saw this pic and had a good laugh. This is a Dell that actually caught on fire and started venting flames out the side.

    I didn't surrender, but they took my horse and made him surrender. They have him pulling a wagon up in Kansas I bet.

    Isn't that the same laptop that is showing up on every video service in the free world? The one that caught fire in Japan?

    Which led me to another site here for the pics:
    Fototime

    There are a few more pics there to, so enjoy.

    Just to be fair, we have over 250 Dell laptops on base and not one caught fire, exploded, etc. We did have one posessed by demons from hell that would randomly fry the hard drive, however.
