Until i can remember something better:
When i was 14, my dad put a BIOS password on the family pc so i couldn't use it (i was building up a big phonebill from internet usage).
He'd let me on it for a limited duration on some days, so one day, i took the lead from my compass, a piece of sandpaper and sprinkled a thin layer of lead dust onto all the keys of the keyboard, then i got him to turn on the pc for me. I was able to work out the password from the keys he pressed :P
