Hurricanes and Computers

Featured Replies

Jim,

I was just reading a computer tip regarding what to do about your computer when evacuating from a hurricane. They suggested leaving the computer in your dishwasher. It is water tight and would probably survive a house falling on it.

Uhhh, Tex, this post is about 4 months too late.

That is a pretty good idea. My home machine is a PowerBook, so I just took it on the road with me. I did leave the wife's cheap iron (=Wintel) to the fates, however. :P

 

At work, I had to move 6 desktop machines into a storm bunker for the hurricanes. It's reinforced concrete and built into the side of the coastal ridge (fossil dune line), and is rated to withstand a direct hit from a Cat5 so we were in good shape ther.

 

But, yeah, if you don't have one of those handy at home I guess a dishwasher will do...

What setting do you put it on?
