Laptop survives 5min in 300°C Oven

jmke · 7th August 2007, 15:13

It's 2:30 in the afternoon. I just got home from class have tons of work to do before we leave for the Thanksgiving holiday and I nearly lost my computer. It was cooked. In the oven. At roughly 300 degrees. For about five minutes. I'm working from the melted laptop now. When we set it on the table to inspect the damage and noticed that the little green light was flashing. We pressed the button. Welcome, it says. Then it starts Windows. We breath a sigh of relief.

I like how the microsoft CoA sticker still looks completely brand new.

Oh, this is rather old by the way, Nov 2005?
