LOL! hahaha,
I have a similar story.
I was at a mates house the other night, their PC wouldnt turn on. I checked the fusebox, fine.
so i switched the cables.
Upon pluggin the cable in, BANG! Nearly blew my hand off!
turns out the PSU switch had been popped to 115. it was a miracle it wasnt already broken!
Anyway, went to sell the scap bits of the pc to Computer Exchange when the guy behind the counter decided to tell my customer, "he should have checked the switch first you know- this is his fault..."
Grrrr.
Luckily she knew it wasn't mine. Besides, I saved 3 weeks of her work off the hard drive.
