So I had this happen yesterday.
User calls in and says her workstation "blew up."
Normally, this is what people say when their computer locks up, or crashes, or whatever. I'm used to that.
Then she says, "I heard a 'poof,' and then I smelled something burning."
"Oh," was all I could say, "so it literally blew up."
Fortunately, she'd already unplugged it and was calling it in so it could get replaced or whatever.
But that was a first for me.
