Compaq//safety issues

While I suppose it's technically possible to be electrocuted by anything plugged into a wall outlet, I really have a hard time buying this story. There's got to be more to it than that. Can you tell me in what newspaper it appeared? "Charles E.

This sounds nearly impossible and very hard on all the young people who are trying to conn a computer out of their parents. If I hear any more I will pass it along. Charlie Fox
