True story, names changed to protect the innocent:

Lady comes into the large retail store that I work at with a laptop, tears pooling in the corners of her eyes. She sets it down and proceeds to regale me with the story.

She works at a private school and, as it's been unseasonably hot here in the Springs and the building she was in didn't have air conditioning, she opened a window while doing some work on her laptop.

So, she gets up to go to the bathroom, leaving the donuts that she'd bought earlier sitting next to her system. She comes back five minutes later to see one of natures furry friends sitting on her laptop keyboard, powdered donut in its fuzzy little paws. She shrieks and makes shooing motions at the intrepid invader. This literally scares the p*ss out of it. Right onto (and into) her keyboard.

She shut the system down and cleaned it up as well as she could, but upon trying to reboot, it wouldn't POST. Not even a POST beep. Nada.

I sat listening to her story, at first not believing it, but she was completely serious. I've still got it on my bench (she came in just as we were closing). I'm thinking that since this happened almost a week ago that any liquids inside will have dried up by now and hopefully I can get it going for her. I've been a tech for about 8 years now, this is the first time that animal pee has ever come into the situation.
