I can honestly say that I have felt like doing this! This is so funny!
Thanks for posting!
Yeah.. we once did this at university with old crap..
We found out a couple of interesting facts.
Monitors are quite tough.. you have to toss them atleast 2 meters before they collaps..
and puters disintergrate in a nice way..
Fireworks and old hardware is something to try too. Realy good feeling seeing old (broken) 286's explode into a million pieces..
The disks in harddisks can fly for about 30 meters without an effort..
Wonder what would happen if you took a Laptop and spun it of a cliff.
A pack of C4 and a PII would prolly make for a nice firework display... :)

A friend of mine is in an industrial band that is known for being banned from everywhere they've ever played. Got to "help" them destroy some monitors, keyboards, etc. once at a show. I rather enjoyed that. :)
Where's my sledgehammer?!?!?!
If I haven't felt like doing that, than I have felt like blowing it up. But sadly, I feel like doing that alot.
cut the system speaker wires cut back the insulation and stick them into a chunck of c5. How far can you run before the first beep
I'm guessing that those of us who don't run very fast shouldn't try this trick? ;)Quote:
