Hmm.  I killed my Apple ][+ when I was fooling around with my Disk ][ in
order to make a backup of something or other.  I didn't put the damn
card down firmly enough. It was off center by an 1/16th of an inch so
all of the "gold fingers" crossed.  When I powered up the computer,
ker-chunk.  Some smoke & a very big repair bill.   (a new power supply
and a new motherboard were required, although all of my cards were OK
for some reason)  Not fun.
