Hah! The cleaning lady must have wanted to get that vacuuming accomplished no matter what mother nature threw her way.

I recently disconnected a whole bunch of unnecessary things from my UPS at home (such as iPod chargers, fax machines, printers) and now it takes my computer 15 minutes before it starts shutdown procedures, vs. the old mere 2.5 minutes.
