There was some home computer - either an original Apple II or a Commodore PET, I don't remember - where if you splurged for the fancy second disk drive, the computer could be destroyed by a rogue program spinning up both drives at once. And since every program ran at the same protection level as the OS (because there were none), it was either two MOVs or two POKEs to the hardware registers to make it happen.
