[rescue] Accidentally destroying hardware..

[Brian Dunbar]

1987 Chevrolet Blazer.  Belonged to the US Navy - wasn't totaled, but coffee
and electric wiring don't mix.  I didn't have to 'pay' for it exactly, but I
"paid" for it until I left that command for greeener pastures.

Poll:

Whats the most expensive piece of equipment you've 
accidentally destroyed, and gotten away with it without having
to pay for it?

I think for me it was a pair of 4G Seagate HDs.  Thank god for 
warranties. 8-)
