There used to be guides on how to bring up the Guru.  Not meant as malicious
back then, more for Amiga owners to amuse themselves. :)  I used to work on an
Amiga and tried them out, when I didn't need the computer for work. :)

The only difference between this and later information on crashing Windows was
the latter came later and often had more malicious intent.
