Lmao, what did it do to make you so mad? :p What monitor was that before it got killed by a sledge hammer.

[Xenocide]

that looked like a semi nice monitor, i don't see why people do that.


except to deathstars! muaha, i killed mine with a crow bar, half life style

[{BC}Helix]

Oh yeah, it was broken before I smashed it. The monitor was a HP pavillion 19".

[Nebuchadnazzar]

That's great, relieve some stress ;) I see you got the pick-axe out there too, very nice!
It reminds me of the part in Office Space where they smash the photo copier

[jimstandard]

i have dreamed of doing such things to so many pieces of obnoxious hardware

[mdcomp]

Thats very dangerous, there is a lot of power stored in there. You could very easily get electrocuted very severly from doing that. Glad you made it out alive... :) . Thanks for the pics.

That came to mind, so I let it sit in unplugged for about 2 weeks, just to be safe. Sure was fun smashing that thing, my friends and I were going to set it on fire but with all the capacitors, plastic and smoke it didn't really make for a good plan. O well.

That's why they have gas-stations... 93octane fuel... no more issue. :D :mad: :mad: :attn:

Maybe the smoke would have gone back inside, and it would start to workey again. :eh?:

[Drec]

i got the same monitor...17" tho...with the little yellow mic cable....damn thing.

[Camacho111]

19" monitor would have made cool CASE modd idea.

That was smart...heh.

:eek: , that was awesome! lmao

[intox]

i should do that to my monitor once i get enough money for a new one, damn 9 year old ibm 15" piece of crap that flickers pink and green!!! grrr i hate this thing

Capacitors and such are explosive, that would be bad ;)

[termin@tor]

hahaha, that's awesome!! :D

[deathman20]

Well the capcitors can't be as explosive as a car battery. *thinks back 10 years ago when I was a young lad* Throw car battery into fire, run like a mofo, BOOOOM hehe. Nice blast from that sucker.

[pwnt by pat]

I took a hockey stick to a monitor before. It went straight through. What else is nice are giant iron bars. I don't know what they're for but I took one and impaled any old hardware I could with it. It was about seven feet long and weighed a good 40 pounds.

[Pro*Banshee]

don't forget throwing it in your lake afterwards pat :D

*gestures to lake with a mirror surface on it thanks to several gallons of lubricants/paint balls/dead hardware/trash*

[XiaO8]

Heh, that's awesome, I'm sure somewhere inside of all of us there was some piece of hardware that we wanted to throw out a window or in your case....................savagly beat a helpless monitor to chards.

[wildfrogman]

Um...dont throw it in the lake! There are only 5~9lbs of lead in a monitor like that and would be very bad. Not mentioning if you ever got caught there would be some type of federal violation or something like that. Lead is a pain to clean up and they would charge you $$$$$$. Cool pics though, just try and clean up afterwards and not break federal laws. Maybe bring it to a recycling center :)

[qualhiveldorf]

And i was willing to pay $100 for a broken one of those, oh well.




just kidding!!!

[bsfalcon]

i only wish i had the money to buy new hardware, what fun i could have destroying some of the crap i have now

[dark_15]

I like it... A LOT! Reminds of what I did to an ancient terminal monitor... One of my friends an I were playing "catch" with it and he dropped it. The case cracked open... so I got mad and kicked in the glass from the front... and my friend kicked the glass in from behind. There was a loud cracking/shattering noise... and we had a terminal that was in a million little pieces... lol

[Salami_Joe]

I do this all the time with old broken hardware components, 'tis very fun... In fact, My CD drive just crapped out on me today...be back later. :D

[DaFonz]

Hehe poor monitor.

Wouldn't it be a huge risk though? I always though that crt mons had huge vacuum tubes, that when exploded, would send shards everywhere?

[amazon10x]

Heh, I did this once to a much lesser degree

Can't wait till i get my three viewsonic LCD's.
*grins at two current pieces of junk in front oh him*

You mean bad as in cool riight :D , spraypaint torch!!! :attn:
