This is how a computer is meant to be used:

AAAaaaahhhhh!!! feel better now B)

That is so funny. I've been known to smack the side of my computer a few times. With that I can destroy it and not have to pay to fix it. A great stress reliever.

I have broken a few (real) keyboards during the recent years, all repaired though The best way I found against breaking my keyboards was to buy an expensive wireless keyboard and mouse: the price retained my fist at the last moment
What I love here is that after a few hits on the keyboard, a blue screen appears on the screen, that unlike the genuine ones can really be removed by smacking the computer :wahah: However the trick does not last for long

I hadn't seen what was happening at the end at first!

I'm lucky, my computer has its moments once in a while but 99% of the time, I'm stable (with Windows, believe it or not)!

I did break my desk's keyboard shelf once by pushing it too hard under the desk in a moment of rage... The shelf wouldn't let me pull it again, I must have scared it!

That was the most fun I've had in like... 3 months. no joke! HAHAAH

Back in my C++ days, I also pounded 1 keyboard into dust.

So far I had been very lucky not to break anything seriously, however I once smashed my fist on the shelf on which I used to operate with my mouse. The shelf broke in 4 pieces and the mouse flew in a bow of 3 meters across the room.

My hand was aching for 2 days, but the mouse is still working .
Fujitsu Electronics seem to produce solid periphery.

I never broke anything while developping. I am becoming much more dangerous while playing :huh: I often insult the computer, and sometimes, depending on the device I use to play, knock the mouse on the desk or hit the keyboard

Although it had nothing to do with computer science, I once knocked a ruler on my table when I was at school. It broke into 3 pieces of about 10 cm each: the first one remained in my hand, the second one flew a few meters away, and the last one hit the opposite wall :wacko: I kept one of the pieces to draw lines, after all a line can be drawn in multiple parts ^_^
... and... I was not eager to tell my parents how I had broken it

And you call that "playing"?
