laceration
 
I was installing a zalman copper flower h/s with a 120mm fan so I turned the machine on and a molex connector hit the fan and a blade broke off and hit my forehead and cut me. I crazyglued it back on and it works fine with no vibration.

For private use I've only killed a leadtek ti4600 when I was installing a Zalman **** sandwich on it.

@ work I've killed numerous components A 9800se, a herc 9700pro, a duron 1300 (I chipped it), a couple of memory modules, a harddrive (it somehow crashed......into the ground ;) )

Nothing that we did lose money over actually, everything got replaced. :)

Hmm, I bought 2 cheapo logitech keyboards, with the idea of modding one later. The modding was never done, but I did tear it apart.
Now I could use a new KB, So I'm reasembling it. After some fiddling I see how it should fit.
Now there's only one problem, it's been too long since I wrecked it and I lost the damn screws to keep it together...

When rigging up home made power cables, don't confuse the 5V and 12V wires. Result: 3 dead HD's.

yea yea.. warning sign: hazardous voltages outside :p
