Yeah, I found this one out the hard way with my in-laws spiffy new iBook. Their first computer. After years of hearing me tell them to get a Mac because it's nice and stable, they finally do, and what happens the first night?
We're setting up the printer, and finish up. I close the lid on the iBook, and then one asks "Can you pull the cable thingy out while it's on?" "Sure, you can pull it out whenever, it's safe." *yoink*
Open the lid, and it's locked hard. Oops. "Oh, yeah, um, that shouldn't happen."
Boy did I look stupid.
