Don't forget to keep that laptop plugged in so you don't lose power. :p

Doesnt come with sharks with frigging laser? Weak sauce.

You know, that could be a great way to motivate the work force. Make the tank a little longer and have a shark chained up at the far end. If a slacker gets lazy and drifts away from their work station, CHOMP. No need for those pesky exit interviews and nothing to clean up.

You know if people got up and moved instead of sitting and flattening their chair bound asses for 8+ hours a day they wouldn't need such gimmickry. ;)

And you save on fish food!

Pure water is not conductive. The presence of electrolytes is what creates the ability to get electrocuted. As long as the water is adequately filtered so that your natural electrolytes from sweat, or urine (workplace efficiency) or a spilled drink, are filtered out relatively quickly, whether or not the laptop is plugged in doesn't matter.

To be effective the rate of circulation and total removal (DI) would be impractical from a consumable cost as well as energy and acoustic factors.
And, still, one would have to factor in nodes of higher than normal current areas that could be quite problematic. It would be a fun project to play with in ALGOR. :)
