[gonzus]

This seems like a rite of passage... I did the same thing with the VAX at my school, but decided to come clean and gave the sysadmin all the passwords I gathered after one day (including several with SYSTEM privileges). They gave me my first job :-). I also made sure to grant the necessary permissions to one or two obscure accounts, so that I could regain SYSTEM when it was revoked on my "official" accounts. Fun times, and innocent too -- I never used the privileges to cause havoc.
