That's true, Lars. If you're using your laptop on your lap while visiting
the "facilities", have the phone ring and stand up too fast, thus losing your
lap, you'd have a very difficult time explaining to the technician how you
dropped your laptop in the toilet. Granted, my Gateway laptop is a shitty
computer, but I'm not certain they'd agree with me enough to get that covered
under waranty. On the other hand, if I dropped my recent issue of the
"Potter Yachter" in the can, I wouldn't have to send it to a technician, but
I'm not too sure I'd really want to finish reading it.
I can't wait to go sailing again! January and February seem to be put here
to keep sailor's humble.
