Just about everything in the building (fax machines, computers, copiers, printers) was fried. Every network card in the PCs had exploded chips on them. | |

Many victims: two hiperlan radio routers, a Cisco 2950, my beloved Powerbook aluminium (that was POWERED OFF AND DISCONNECTED FROM ANY CABLE) and two TV tuners... :-( | |
