I suspect you guys who think grounding is god's gift to mankind of being

exactly y'all think it is that makes an ungrounded computer "dangerous."

An ungrounded computer would be dangerous for the same reason an
ungrounded stove would be.

If there is a hot to case short, the computer would have 120V on the
case.

This could electrocute you, and you would be dead, forever.
