plonq: (Cheesy Mood)
Our 350W power supply finally came back from the factory.

On the plus side they didn't charge us for shipping (which I had been expecting), but that may be because the "6-8 week turnaround" turned out to be closer to 3-4 months turnaround.

On the down side, they simply sent back the same power supply with a new fan bolted in.  It stinks.  Literally.  The power supply reeks of burnt components.

I assume they tested it before they sent it out, so it's probably good to go.  I'm guessing that the burnt smell was from the old fan burning out, rather than any of the other components cooking themselves.  The power supply was working fine when we had it, aside from the fact that fan wasn't spinning and it smelled like baking electronics.  With luck the smell will blow itself out after use - though I guess it wouldn't hurt to hang a car deodorizer inside the computer case for the first while.

the Wit
(69% dark, 17% spontaneous, 16% vulgar)
your humor style:
CLEAN | COMPLEX | DARK




You like things edgy, subtle, and smart. I guess that means you're
probably an intellectual, but don't take that to mean you're
pretentious. You realize 'dumb' can be witty--after all isn't that the
Simpsons' philosophy?--but rudeness for its own sake, 'gross-out' humor
and most other things found in a fraternity leave you totally flat.

I
guess you just have a more cerebral approach than most. You have the
perfect mindset for a joke writer or staff writer. Your sense of humor
takes the most effort to appreciate, but it's also the best, in my
opinion.



Also, you probably loved the Office. If you don't know what I'm
