Came in on the weekend. And guess what I found? My entire test rack was powered down. The UPS was beeping and my data was lost. I was really regretting having to tell the boss. I looked inside the test PC. And to my surprise. The motherboard was fried! The fuses in the DVMs were blown and the power supply had died. I just had to walk away, because I was about to cry! |
