Right I am using a Dell XPS 1710M gaming laptop. I had the battery pack taken out and was using it on my lap and I just felt an electric current running through me and passed it on to my girlfriend when her arm touched mine. :eek: It was bit painful but thank god it wasn't a big one.

It it not a static shock as it felt completely different. My muscle had a short spaz during which the current running through me.

There are metal panels below the laptop, could this be the case?

Will I die?

Discuss!

*UPDATE* It just happened again. the current ran from my leg through to my gf on her arm :eek:
