Default Computer making a hissing sound?

THX to ICFire (someone I know) for these pics. These were emailed to him from the company he works for

"Hello my computer was making a strange hissing noise last night and this morning when I turned it on there was a crackling noise and some smoke then nothing, if I bring it in can you fix it?"

You kind of wonder how that happened, and then you wonder what else is slithering around under their desk

Snakes are attracted to heat. So maybe after the user turned the system off and power supply stayed warm, so the snake slithered his way inside it. in the morning i'm guessing the user turned the system on and the psu got too hot, so it tried to escape (through the fan no less) and it got stuck. Then...he got fried
