lightning

[jdm111]

ok so i was just walking towards my desk to use my MacBook, when all of a sudden there was a huge flash of lightning. there was a flash at my desk next to my MacBook.

I always unplug my computers during lightning storms but this was the first strike. I am using the MacBook now and it seems to be ok.

What do you guys think?

It sounds pretty electrifying. I'm sure your computer is fine. Did it shock you when you touched it? Zaaap!

If it's running I think it doesn't matter.

If it were hit, you'd know it.

Must have been a quite shocking experience!

If you value it, and it's electronic, have it behind a GOOD quality surge protector (and unplug it for good measure in storms).
