Are three-prong to two-prong converters safe?
Just curious, how unsafe is it (if at all) to use those three-prong to two-prong converter thingies that you use when an outlet has only two prongs but you need to plug something in that uses three prongs?
I imagine they're basically harmless if you only use devices that have two-prong plugs, but I wonder if Bad Things could happen if you plug in stuff that has three-prong plugs, like computers.

Simply put, I wouldn't worry about using a cheater plug.
It's all smoke and mirrors actually.
