MysticWicks endorsement: "I've always, always regarded the Discordians as being people who chose to be Discordians because they can't be arsed to actually do any work to develop a relationship with a specific deity, they were too wishy-washy to choose just one path, and they just want to be a mishmash of everything and not have to work at learning about rituals or traditions or any such thing as that."

USB won't deliver enough current to fry a motherboard.
USB devices need to negotiate with the host to deliver more than a certain amount of power, so you'd need to have a working USB device request the power increase, THEN route it across the data pins.
I have, however, made etherkilller-style devices for USB. That WILL fry the motherboard quite nicely.
