A couple of comments:

First our friends at Microsoft have convinced us that the "Blue Screen of Death" is a feature not a bug put in to test the CTRL/ALT/DEL sequence. I think they used smoke and mirrors.

Second realize that software is the one thing that can let the smoke out of electronics or the noise out of the mechanical system. Command two mechanically linked motors to go in opposite direction and see which gets let go first, noise or smoke.
