RE: a bolt of lightning and a puff of smoke.
Commodore Amigas and some of the older machines had a light on them. When they went on or began to blink the machine had a data collision. And the machine did not know what to do next. So it tured on the Guru light and locked up. These were early attempts at multitasking. The results kinda sucked sometimes. You would be just about done with a project and the !##%^$#@@#%&^*()( ligth would come on and everything you worked on was lost. Kind of annoying, thank god those days are gone.
