I wonder how well your average computer motherboard would handle being in a pressurized air environment.
Like your sea level pressure is like 14 PSI, and inside a car tire is like 30 PSI.
I wonder if any components would fail at the latter pressure?

@foone There was that thing about helium crashing iPhones because it did something weird to the MEMS accelerometers, so... maybe?

The problem there was that helium diffuses through everything extremely easily. If you had a diffusion-related problem with air at e.g. 2x higher pressure, it would simply manifest ~2x more slowly at normal pressure.
