    Has anyone else picked up their A1 with one hand and gotten shocked (on the bottom near or on the left speaker). It has happened several times, and its not too strong of a shock but it still hurts. Also, the computer seems to be fine when its shocking me.

    I have determined that I only get shocked when I'm holding the computer and sliding around on the couch, which has a synthetic fabric. So its probably just static jumping from my finger to the computer.

    Your ground circuit in your house is broken or miswired. Could be a sign of trouble.
