Re: THE RANT THREAD!
Hmmmm, I'm not sure. I used to have the machine on the other side of the room and I have a lot of other electrical devices connected to the socket (through a power bar) and none of those seem to die. I do have computer troubles, but it's a software issue and the computer is 6 years old.

Almost all plugs are grounded here There are only 2 prongs in German outlets and the grounding is built into the plugs through contact points instead of prongs: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schuko
My sewing machine has a Europlug and not a Schuko, but that's common with older (the machine is from the late 70s) and low-power devices. I think they're also grounded somehow, but I'm not 100% sure how they work.
