Bring out your dead

Computer blew up. Boo hoo.

When I turned on the power something in the power supply unit exploded, and set off the house's electrical safety switch. 'Twas a lovely loud bang, and a quite nasty smell. I took apart the PSU, but couldn't find the damaged element, which I'd guess was a capacitor that has now gone to meet its maker. Hmm, time for a new PSU.

I've moved down to an Intel Celery 300 in the meantime.
