Subject: RE: HELP my widget is smoking
Try picking up the front edge, lifting it an inch off of the table, and dropping it back down. This may straighten out the problem (it used to work on some of the old computers). If you after all of this work decide you want to kill off this widget and buy a new one, then drop it from tabletop height onto the floor. It's best if it lands hard on one corner (the post office technique with fragile boxes).
