:: I Don't Believe It ::

I'm a know-it-all, and I'm usually comfortable with most things techie, but now I'm baffled.
I can't believe that all I needed to get my laptop to work was an AVR. I thought my hard drive was damaged (and I still think I should replace it), but it turns out that it might not be as bad as i first thought. Anyway, I'm just glad. I've got to wait a few days to be sure my laptop is ok though... but still, I'm glad.
[WARNING: technical information to follow]
For those who don't know what an AVR is, it is an Automatic Voltage Regulator. Basically, it ensures that the current to your TV, PC, or whatever appliance connected to it, remains steady. In other words, it eliminates most electric fluctuations. Why is this so important? Well, to make a long story short, flucutations in electric currents can cause major damage to expensive appliances.
[NOTICE: end of jargon]
