I've never really done anything too terrible to an Amiga.  The worst offense is probably that I have two A4000Ds sitting unusable, due to lack of suitable processor cards.  (I have a dead 3640 and a dead CSMKII 060 I need to get fixed.)

Funniest error resulting in lost data:
I managed to muck up the directory structure of my HD on my old A500/DataFlyer rig.  I somehow had a complete dh0: inside my c: assignment on dh0:.  Accessing any of this would result in an instant Guru Meditation.  I only found this much out when I booted the system from floppy.  :lol:

Most durable computer ever witnessed:
My friend punched an A500 hard enough that the processor came out of the socket.  This was while the machine was running, mind you.  Broke several small bits of case plastic, as well.  He turned it off, opened it up, re-seated the completely dislodged processor (after straightening a few pins, and reseated the half-dislodged Agnus (!!), applied power, and it booted right back up.   Amazing.
