Well, I do know that during college our SE (Where are you, Howie?? hehe)
jokingly awarded us (NNC Computer Science Majors) the Order of the HP
3000 Dragon Slayers!!
 
Something about being able to crash the HP 3000 in the most "unique" ways
:)  Some of which included crashing the 7933 drives (That is a sound no
computer professional ever forgets...head hitting platter!)
 
But hey!!! it was an "academic" environment :) we could "play" once in a
while :)  oh and never set your system clock back a week by twiddling the
bits while people are logged on!! (and yes... we "altered" the clock not
changed it :) )
