IGOTAQUESTION

Only recently discovered that Nando's chips are friend. Do they contain trans-fat?

Solvent is the toxic part of permanent markers.

How long does it take to evaporate?

When it's gone, the ink isn't toxic right?

Dropped iPhone and on Kindle screen.

From low height.

Kindle in one hand phone in other.

Any chance of damage?

How robust are these things?

Accidentally left kindle on inside leather case. For a couple days I think. If I did this with a laptop, of course, it would damage it. Is this the same for Kindles?

Does this damage it in any way? Like it would for a laptop?

Left for University in a mad rush. Left all my CDs at home. No chance of getting them back. Re-downloaded all my music from dropbox and google documents from zipped files. Do zip files retain CD quality?

Charged kindle in its case for about an hour. Is this bad for the battery? Are there 'vents' anywhere that would be blocked if I charged it in its case (like in laptops)? The case was open, but the kindle was still attached.

Accidentally left my laptop on – shutting the lid usually puts it to sleep, but not this time – and zipped it up in my laptop case, for two and a half hours. Felt warm to the touch when I came back home. Is there any checks I can run to make sure my hard drive and other inside parts are still ok?

Accidentally unplugged my iPhone during a restore - meant to unplug another USB device. Now it's stuck on a black screen, with the apple logo, and an empty progress bar. How do I switch it off and start it up again?

Might have got E45 lotion on USB device that I plugged into my notebook. Can't really see that there's anything in the ports. But, wouldn't want external harddrive to fail later, is there any way to test my USB ports? Any program on Windows 7 that will tell me if my USB ports are working ok?

Thanks

Ok, this is what happened.

Plugged in an old USB External Hard Drive into my notebook computer. Noticed later that a bottle of E45 lotion had leaked into the drawer that this Hard Drive was kept in. If there were traces of E45 lotion on the silver-going-in-USB-thing (I don't know what you call it) would this do harm to my notebook?

I scanned my macbook with ClamXav a while back. It found a Trojan virus that had been there, apparently, since 2008. I erased my hard-drive and reinstalled Mac OS X. I did a scan with ClamXav, again, and the virus didn't show up. Is the Trojan gone? It seemed too easy to get rid of it.

My macbook CPU has been heating up to 102/103oC according to my iStat Pro app when I watch videos on youtube or play games. I thought this was normal, but some people say it isn't.

Anyway, I'll be transferring my iTunes music library from my macbook to another PC, and then recycling this macbook in return for £165 from apple. I was wondering, is it possible that the overheating CPU could damage my hard-drive, or my music files? This might sound obsessive, but I worry about these things?

If the music plays, it's ok, right?

I've been a real hip-hop fan since I was 13/14 - I'm 20 now. I don't actually buy music very often, I have a modestly sized digital collection, and listen to tracks I want but don't have on youtube. But I have about £15 to spend on music now. Here is my music collection at the moment:

Thanks.
