Power company decided to play "hey we're testing the meter, you're losing power for up to 10 minutes" *5 seconds later power blinks off as does my computer* yeah... some notice considering my mother didn't even get a chance to call and tell me that was happening so I could power it off.
Oyvey. There are even more important things than computers (which are important) that could be damaged by such treatment! That's very unprofessional of the company! *hug*
Oh I know, but my computer was just the thing that was more prevelant at the time since I went from trying to relax with a pc game, to a black moniter in a second flat XD. Trust me, if they caused someone that required medical equipment with a constant power source to be in severe danger, it wouldn't matter who runs the power compnay they'd be liabel(city run power company here)
I just would love to see that person try that stunt at the local hospital and see how "well" it goes over.
Anyways, from what i can tell ML, nothing was thankfully damaged in the house from it(none of my systems were on at the time thankfully) but I'm still irritated(I've had a power outage before that caused my ps3 to go through a file verification before so I really would have been steamed if that had happened again)
