Now admit it. You've always wanted to do this.
Yuppers, when my old 486 died, I did what I always threatened to do to it. Took a ball-peen hammer to the insides of the case, and smashed them peice by peice. (I advise using gloves and safety goggles.) Then I started a nice toasty fire in a 55 Gallon Barrel and tossed them all in. Stoked the fire good, and melted about 75% of the components.
Then, I went up a 15 story dorm where I work, and since it is summer, no one was around. With my boss on the look out below, I tossed the monitor out. It went boom very nicely.
Although clean-up was a bitch.

But Steven, I do do that. For money. Oh, I see -- it doesn't need to go back together again afterward. Nemmind.
