Yep... just leave the cover hanging on there, don't bother screwing it in. Then when you remove the plug from the wall while it's still attached to the PSU.. .make sure the outlet cover falls off and lands on the pins half way plugged into the socket... it makes for pretty things like this:

Fried motherboard, cd-rom, hard drive, no way to test the old p3 socket 370 or SDRAM... junk anyway.

Dear End User; I had things to do today, thank you for consuming my time with your ignorance. (bought new stuff, assembled, installing windows....)

Wow, that takes talent. He must have caused a massive surge.
