Oh horrors

Last night there was a thunderstorm so I shut down the computer and turned all the gear off at the wall. Today when I switched it back on at the socket there was a loud pop and a flash from the area of the power supply. Half the power points in the house stopped working. That put me into a bit of a panic, I can tell you! But after resetting the circuit breakers everything seems fine: computer goes, music and TV equipment still working, no expensive circuit boards fried in the washing machine. Whew.
Backup time for saved games and my drawing scans folder, though.
