That's why i use a UPS. And keep it at eye-level. And zip-tie the cords to solid supports, just in case. But i do hate it when, at 3:30 on a Friday, i find a huge show-stopper bug that really needs to be fixed 'fore Monday. Like just now...

3 times in the past 2 weeks. Keeps thinking this will save electricity and no one uses it after 5 pm since no one is hear.

A company I used to work at, did that all the time. The "we'll get some pizza tonight" didn't fly for long.

I hate it when I'm hot-in-the-middle developing something, I haven't saved a line of code, and my cutest-little-girl-in-the-world granddaughter hits the reset button on the front of my dev box.

You've explained all the details of the bug that has been hunting you for hours and they just sits there, looking inappreciative... and then I remember -- The dogs never passed the programming course...

...an app that was built using standard mechanisms like ctrl-z to mean something different.... Typing a note in our change control system... unlock the record, start typing the note... "oh, that's not what I wanted, better undo" Nope. It undid the record change. Start over.
This statement is false.

LOL! Another reason I like laptops. There's been a few cases where I've been coding away for a couple hours, only to discover the "you're battery is getting low" message popping up. Whoops! It's particularly amusing when that happens during a power outage, and that's the only way I realize the power went out. Marc

Happened here just the other day... the guys with desktops had to stop, I chose to stop, to watch the lightning storm of course. :laugh:

Better yet (better than my last post, not yers) When your learning for the first time that VisualStudio doesn't use Alt-F2 to bring up the bookmarks dialog, but your laptop does to short-circuit reboot.
This statement is false.

Last year, I dropped my TV remote onto one of my computer power strips...about 30 minutes later, I heard a beeping...which turned out to be the UPS feeding my computer and monitor...only then did I realize that the remote had hit the power switch and turned off the main power strip... :doh: Steve
