    Post Oops, I broke it.

    What is the most expensive piece of equiptment or software you have completely screwed up or broken.

    I once dropped a 17 inch flat panel and cracked the screen. it was worth about $1500.

    I once took a Viper for a test drive and wrecked it. Does that count? (-;

    I broke a $20,000 Xerox Fiery (motorola processor based harddrive that feeds images to a full color copier), just by changing the IP address...

    at least , that was xerox's story , all i did was push about five buttons which Xerox tech support told me to push , and when it went to reboot , it would hang during the authetication phase.
