Whoa... Power Surge

My girlfriend was sitting here playing HeXic when we had a power surge. Everything shut off for a second and then came back on. The only thing affected by it was the 360.

The Ring of Light around the power button was glowing red, rather than it's usual green. But the game was gone from the screen and the controller wouldn't turn the system off. I had to turn it off manually.

Then everything was back to normal.

Weird.

You should invest in a surge protector all my computers and Game systems are plugged into surege protectors just in case, better safe then sorry, And some of the surge protectors have $10,000 insurance for your equipment if there surge protector fails to protect your equipment.

Yeah, everything seemed to be OK afterward.

But yeah, it was strange to see the Ring of Light all red like that.
