I can top that. Boss's wife has a net book she regularly moves around the
house. Calls me one day with no sound, so I remote into the machine and it's
not muted. Since I can't see the machine, I couldn't tell that she had
plugged a spare charger into the speaker port on the netbook. Good thing she
didn't have the power plug for the charger plugged into the wall, I suppose.
Sigh.
