    The amount of times that, in my imagination, I've picked up the my keybaord and - snapped it in two, smashed it against a wall or thrown it vigorously across the room has to have reached the hundreds of thousands mark. I suppose I should be thankful that I deal with stress within my head rather than abusing my poor keyboard.

        Breaking the keyboard doesn't work. Anyone in hollywood can tell you that if you want to kill a computer, you shoot the monitor.

        I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

          I abuse my keyboard, from time to time. I go to meetings. Hmmm, I feel I have said too much.

                    Why not your mouse or monitor though? Or, even better, the people who got you that worked up! Coworkers, boss, Bill Gates... :D

                      In the days of the CRT monitor I used to keep a foam baseball bat on the desk so I could beat the crap out of the monitor, didn't want to hit the cpu, I might have damaged something. Very cathartic, now days I just scowl at a minion, they usually laugh at that.
