Well, my dad was out plowing snow today when all of a sudden I hear this lound nasty noise. That noise was closely followed by my mom saying that my dad had busted the snow plow, but then my brother esclaimed from the basement that the basement was flooding. Turns out my dad got the hose caught in the plow (plow is ok) which pulled on the spickit(sp) and broke a water pipe in the basement ceiling.

That pipe just happened to be directly above my fathers P3 450. long story short nothing of signifcance was damaged and the mess is now all cleaned up and the pipe is fixed. The pc was protected from the water by the shelf above it and only came in contact with a minimal amount of moisture since it was not setting directly on the floor. However, a monitor, scanner, and printer are now in electronics heaven and trust me they're better off there.:) PC is back up and crunching.:)

WOW! That must have got the heart pumping. Glad to hear all is ok, but it could have been a great excuse to buy a new T-Bred! :)
