So on the back of computers there is a pwr supply switch which can be set to either 115 or 240. 115 being america and 240 being other regions like australia. The switch is covered with a plastic cover, has a big warning sticker about electrocution. If you put the switch over to 115 on a 240 system it will have a column of sparks out of the power supply about 2-3metres long and you will fry everything in the machine. So what do you think people do?
My week isnt complete unless atleast one person askes me about fire or electrocution or blowing something up.
