If the casing wasn't damaged, I'd say your notebook should be fine. The internal components should be able to withstand the heat from a nearby fire, assuming they were designed to run at very high temperatures. The first sign of damage should be from the casing and the LCD IF there was damage done to your lappie.

Woots... Perhaps we should rate you laptop as the most durable laptop in the world.. Can withstand fire! Btw, what's your laptop brand and model? Maybe I should buy a laptop of your brand

Wow, that's amazing... Your lappie can actually withstand the intense heat from the fire! Where did the fire happen, btw?
Oh ya, and another thing, even if the fire didn't get your lappie, the water from the fire brigade's hose could have damaged it (knowing the sensitivity of electronic components to H2O)... You were lucky that this did not happen also! This post has been edited by ClieNut Gadget Freak: Apr 9 2006, 06:10 PM |
