Well, as an example, I remember back in my DOS days, it was pretty hard to wipe out an entire hard disk drive. Unless, of course, you knew enough about the FORMAT command to be dangerous. Like the time I wanted to format a floppy diskette and blithely entered: FORMAT C:
Then when the computer asked me... "This is going to format your hard disk drve... are you sure you want to do that???" of course I answered, "Yes you ignorant machine!... WAIT! NO!!!"
But of course, by then I'd hit the button. :rolling:
