So not that long ago, my computer wouldn't turn on. The power supply had gone, which isn't surprising as it was several years old and my computer is always on. Fortunately I had a new power supply I'd purchased before when I thought my kids PS had gone, but actually it had been the PS and the motherboard and I just swapped out a whole machine. So a couple months ago I merrily replaced the PS, thinking I was all set for a good while. Well this morning I wake up to a not on computer and an electrical burning smell coming from the PS. Gah.
The most annoying thing is that the place I go for decent prices on computer components is in TROY! (that is about 55 minutes away for those of you not from Michigan). Maybe I can make some kind of an outing of it. There is a 16 screen dollar theatre over there. HMM
