Your Flaming ATX is non-compliant!!
For those of you who have experienced a power supply going through the phases of a meltdown. I thought I'd mention your power supply is not ATX12V compliant!! Cease and desist operating this non-sanctioned part!

remember that next time you have one of these (not mine)  :
I came across this while reading the v1.3 ATX12V spec. (Edit: no the melted down comp was not part of the spec)

Haha, I had one of my firends had his PSU catch on fire and burn a table leg sitting near it. The kicker is that the computer was working for a little while while it was burning. (like 10 seconds)

Hmm, if Arnold Schwarzenegger was a bodybuilder and he won the California governorship, and Superman is stronger than Schwarzenegger, that means... that means Superman can win the presidency!!! Go Superman!!! J/K. In any case I'm pretty sure the power supply was manufactured outside the U.S. as 99.9% of them are. :/

The comment was made in passing. Really I have nothing to say about anything to do with politics.
