...are not a good combination. Had a bottle leak in the car last week and soak the bottom of my briefcase/computer bag. Today, a dark line snaked its way down through the monitor wiping out all the pixels on the left side of the screen. Cost to repair equals cost of new machine, so there goes the ol' cigar budget for a few months. $#%#!!

    Damn that sucks man! Funny you said this though I had the exact same combination a few years ago. Mine wasn't anywhere near as bad as yours. I just had it spill on the keyboard.

    Dang Doug, that sucks. I had an intern who dumped coffee on her laptop two hours into her first day, she almost threw up she was so scared to tell me.

    That sucks, would think all the caffeine in MD it would have sped up your clock speed. At least you get a new computer though.

    It was a Lenovo, may it rest in peace.

    You are a kind man, Jim. I'm fine for smokes... just hate unexpected expenses. Keep wanting to step up my game and be like you, then "poof" goes the budget. :^/

    Haha! Wish it worked that way! New computer is pretty cool, tho.
