So i looked up at the screen and saw that it actually froze the screen. and made the pc completely unresponsive. Luckily one hard restart later and everything was golden... So is the risk of ESD death over talked? or am i just a lucky bugger

I have't "kill" any part of my pc with esd yet. But I did burn my CPU because the technician had forgotten to put the cable of the fan in the plug.
