can't watch video right now..
But the thread title reminds me of a couple years ago, I used to always run my PC with case open, anyway, had a brand new $600 video card and I'd left my comp on downloading torrents, anyway, our cat used to sit inside my computer case sometimes.. This time, I come home and cat had been in the case with PC on, all seemed ok, until a bit after I got the cat out my video card caught on fire.. turns out it was covered in cat hair which heated up and eventually flamed the thing.. Great way to destroy a nice piece of hardware. Ended up having to replace it with an old 32mb PCI TNT2 lol
That is funny. Makes you wonder how people come up with this stuff. Now let's see, maybe if I put my laptop into the oven I might start a great winning streak. Someone please try it for me first and let me know if this helps

Actually it has some credit, you see the yellow light of death on your PS3, guess how to fix it??? Its all about making good connections, like it explains about heat and solder, nothing too new but most ppl in this field would use a special oven to mend the joints and not a microwave.
