The first snow storm here usually turns into an ice storm. Three times in the last five-ten years I have lost power. The first time it was out for two weeks and the other times for a couple of days.

This is 30 miles south of me 2 years ago but if I'd taken a picture outside my apartment it would have been the same. Outside my apartment was a tree that was higher than the top of a two story apartment. The ice killed that tree.

i never lost a part due to a psu dying. but a 3870 killed the whole pci area of the second biostar i had, but i fucked it up with a screwdriver (ripped of 10 transitors, replaced them with pencil, and arctic ceramique, as protection coat. it lived 6 months on.), so its should be pretty normal (i attempted a bios flash, that killed card+board ;-) load couldnt,not even 100degrees celsius)
