Actually, I did that to the very first computer I ever owned... Dunno if it were win 95 or the one below it, but I realised I spent more time messing about with it, than actually using it, so I eventually lost it, and kicked the fuck out of it...
Sparks went everywhere, and nearly started a fire - Which lead me to think of home insurance...
So I spoke to the place I got it from (The PC) and I had a pal there...
He put EVERY bit of broken kit tat came in to the shop, in a pie, and called it 'Bills Computer'...
When the insurance guy eventually arrived at the shop, to see my PC that had 'Fallen Down Te Stairs?'...
There were so many top end parts, that you couldn't have actually fitted it all in one PC !!!
So for £40 - The amount I had to pay out of my own pocket to make the claim - I ended up with a PC that did everything possible, and the rest was history!
Temper can be a good thing !
