There was a best-I-can-describe-it portable heater smell emanating from the vent of my Lenovo v100 a few days ago. I’d been leaving the laptop on and leaving my glass a tad too close to the vent and caused 2 auto shutdowns due to overheating (this is from retrospect).
The most likely possibility was that perhaps some [...]
Yes! It is possible!
1. Pay all your bills online
You’ll save time and fuel paying online than standing in a queue for hours and later eating a fuel-guzzling meat patty on processed bread and trans fat-filled fries, then taking a fuel-guzzling cab or adding your weight to that piece of public transport home (costs less if [...]
