That happens with my macbook pro, happened with a powerbook, and even happens with my TV when I am plugging in wires and touch the corners of it, sometimes. I've felt it with stereos too. It's pretty common.</p> http://shanghaiist.com/2007/07/31/cant_take_the_h.php#comment-1162354 http://shanghaiist.com/2007/07/31/cant_take_the_h.php#comment-1162354 Comments Thu, 02 Aug 2007 12:08:41 +0700 <p>My new (China built apparently) 17-inch MacBook Pro which I paid whopping 3 grand for back in Canada a few months ago gives me a little electrical shock if it is plugged into an AC power source. I suspect there is a problem with the metal casing. Any other Mac users out there experiencing this? </p> http://shanghaiist.com/2007/07/31/cant_take_the_h.php#comment-1160355 http://shanghaiist.com/2007/07/31/cant_take_the_h.php#comment-1160355 Comments Tue, 31 Jul 2007 22:52:57 +0700 <p>chinese students have been known to be very sweaty when online. nanheyangrouchuan</p> http://shanghaiist.com/2007/07/31/cant_take_the_h.php#comment-1160222 http://shanghaiist.com/2007/07/31/cant_take_the_h.php#comment-1160222 Comments Tue, 31 Jul 2007 17:26:09 +0700 <p>Well, thank Xenu he wasn't using a mac, otherwise the entire building would have burned down.</p>
