Well it's his own damn fault for leaving his PCI slots ajar like that. Now what if you had an SNES, and a small mouse was hiding in it when you tried jamming a cartridge in it?
It's not that complicated. It takes like 30 minutes to learn how to put together a PC. I'm not talking about researching the best components. Just screwing stuff in.
I wonder if the guy is brave enough to take advantage of his protection plan. Some people would argue that acts of god should count towards retailors honoring protection plans,heh.
