[John Dollison]

I've never heard of one going up in flames, but if it did, I'm sure it must
be a Linux problem!  LOL....

Back when my HP inkjet died, it took me probably half an hour of
answering questions, getting interrupted if I tried to get a word in
edgewise. When they finally asked if I had rebooted and such, I got a
chance to say "it burst into flames and burned up, filling the entire
room with smoke and ozone".
