WTF: Mr Melty The Laptop

Gabe Pérez

15 May, 2012

From autocorrector:

Brought into our support center yesterday. The owner (who shall remain nameless) decided putting it into the oven was the most efficient way of drying it after he'd spilled water on it. This was a college student... I weep for the future. Amazingly the hard drive was unaffected.

The keys were like Shrinky-Dinks. The user wasn't willing/able to say how long they'd left it in the oven and at what temp.

Thankfully he'd remembered to remove the battery. Amazingly the hard drive spun up from a dock no problem.
