Story:
I work at a computer fixit store. A month or so ago, some guys computer died, we got him a "new" one (200mhz, Win95). I did a crap job on it, and it wasnt set up right. CD rom didnt work, I didnt test it, yes, I admit it, it sucked. I was rushed, blah blah blah. He brought it back in, and my boss was pissed. Boss left. Computer has no data on it, besides the OS. EVERYTHING about this computer is crapped up, and is gonna take a buttload of time to fix. Unless... out comes the external powersupply, at 30volts. Zap goes the CPU.
Would you have done the same thing to save your butt? The guy didnt pay for this computer, it was a trade thing for an ad in his crappy newspaper. He had no data on it. The computer blew chunks, and would take forever to get it working. Yes, I know it was "wrong" but I want to hear what you guys woulda done. Me? I'd do it all over again.
