Rest in pieces – a farewell to my laptop

Today I have to say goodbye to trusty sidekick, my Asus Z7100 series laptop. After three long years of being tortured daily it finally died, in a blaze of glory. Apparently while using my hard drive adapter to backup some hard drives the adapter’s relay for the power supply shorted and put 12 volts DC straight through the USB ports on my laptop.
A tragic way for any piece of electronics to go, howver I’m just glad it wasn’t a customers laptop.
The best part is I’ve been in need of an upgrade anyways, so the office is just going to have to pay up.
