My OG Karma had a screwdriver dropped onto the live power supply and I thought a fire was going to break out!!!

But that's not the only data that's in the BIOS.

Agreed. Nice job on those covers!
I'd like to gig in a prog tribute band, but there's not a lot of market for a band like that close to my home, and I'm getting too old for road work. |

After you change the battery, and BIOS settings are lost, it may take a few extra seconds to boot the first time while BIOS automatically checks how much memory you have, which disk drives are connect ... |

The cases KK suggested are extreme, and I've never seen anything like that happen either. But then, I change ... |
