    Getting Even With Your PC

    I came across this earlier while searching for project ideas for old computers, and got a good laugh out of it:

    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..
    ASCII stupid question, get a stupid ANSI.

    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...

    yeah but them old 286 motherboards bend really far before they crack, have lot's of pins that get everywhere too. It's an outdoor project
    Alternate realities celebrate reality. If you cant handle the reality your in, then you wont be able to handle the one your attempting to escape to.

    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.

    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?
