I am being truly paranoid here, but just for reference its generally considered bad news to put conventional plastic tape on modern circuit boards, you can generate 1000's of volts of static just unreeling tape.
Pop that on the board and you could (could - not will) damage a chip. It is likley damage will not show symptoms, just cause a reduction in expected life of a component perhaps a failure in a year or two - damage is usually cumulative.
However many PC engineers think you are barking mad when you try and prompt them to take anti static precautions - even changing processors.
There is a good info at :
ESDA
if you are curious.
Can you guess how many volts you generate walking across a carpet? Check out table 2.
