so, this is just a story, but i thought it was fun. my brother has a 1ghz tibook. he is in Arizona, and sw out at school and got hit by a monsoon. his laptop get drenched. i mean soaking. it didnt turn on. he put thi thing on top of the oven, and it dried out. when it was dry, the screenc ame on for a second then blanked out. so he plugged it into an external moniter. it worked! he atually ripped the screen off the powerbook, becuase iut no longer worked, i mean ripped it off. while the computer was on and everything.now, he uses the bottom half of the computer as the keyboard, and have a moniter and mouse plugged in. thats insane. i cannot belive it can take such abuse and still work. he is compleyley happy.goo rediculously strnog machines.
