Seen the other day on a bumper sticker on a HGV:

As long as we cannot send apples by e-mail, you have to share the road with us.

That's pretty hilarious I must admit. Anyway......it seems there are more IT people in here than meets the eye, so here is one for you. Got a call about a pc refusing to boot up, after the owner "mistakenly" unplugged the power from the mains, when they tried to switch the pc back on, nothing is happening, it's not booting up at all.

Initial reaction for me is that power supply unit ( PSU ) has packed up, the question is, what do you folks think the problem might be apart from this?

Thanks in advance !
