Surrealistic Keyboard

(1/1)

calzap:
Our media computer and big screen TV are in our living room near the woodstove.   When I’m doing ripping and transcoding, I use the keyboard in my lap.  But will sometimes set it on the woodstove if I’m interrupted.  The woodstove is usually not in action at night.   When I finish with the computer, I put the keyboard in an adjacent room … until last night.

Yup, lit the already-laid-in fire this morning without noticing the keyboard.  Before long, I was smelling eau-de-ABS.  See the pics.   Removed what I could get off quickly.  Fortunately, we have a whole house fan; so opened windows and switched it on.   A bit chilly though.   Smoke alarms and CO alarms found it exciting for a while.  Scraped the remaining melted ABS off the stove with a putty knife.

Think the warranty will cover it?  :)

New rule: put nothing on the woodstove … ever.
