Just recently smash a big fax machine, I used my elbow only to leave some smash marks.

Fax machine scan papers too quick and it not even giving me time to feed one at it a time. The rubber wheel will not feed the papers properly and will grab 2 at a time to scanned.

I finally going to make sure it disappear within a year.

No, I don't. It's a family computer anyway and I don't want to break it.

I broke the screen on my old Dell lap-top by throwing a wireless mouse at it, I was frustrated because of some crap-ware
that was slowing it down and causing other problems. A very expensive lesson learned, I replaced it with an acer Aspire 5100
that is at least three times faster. It's what I'm using right now.

I never hit mine, but I sometimes act like I'll shut it off. Usually, that makes it cooperate.

nope, but since I fix them for a living, I know violence is no solution...;)
I do a little 'percussive maintenance' (love that term..;) on printers, though, but you have to be careful where and how hard to tap...;)
