Wrong! In a country with 240 volt mains, the big capacitor in a switchmode power supply may have around 400 volts across it. For 110 volt countries, it'll have a lesser, but still significant voltage. It should drain away when unplugged. But that doesn't happen instantly. And, if the power supply has a fault, it may hold a charge for longer than you might expect. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
