Hopefully someone that knows about this stuff will chime in. *Looks like

I guess a good plan would be to remember there isn't anything that is worth
losing your life and keep your
fire insurance premiums paid up.

Taria, lost yet another uncle today. *: (

Taria,

Sorry to hear about your uncle.

Halon doesn't leave
a residue so it won't hurt electronics.

If it's the electronics that were on fire, does that really matter?
They're going to be toast anyway, and should be covered by insurance
(like water & smoke damage from fighting fires) - so get what puts the
fire out best/fastest that won't be toxic to the user.
