You know, if people are going to discuss breaking blowing up computers and killing people, they could at least have the taste to discuss it elsewhere. Myself, I'm not a believer in violence, and I don't think this list is devoted to explosives. Newgroup alt.terrorism.techniques if you insist.

I agree. Besides, there are much more tasteful and aesthetic ways to get the job done. A degaussing coil is a good idea, or why not sell a 'simple' add on (requiring making a hole in the hard-drive's casing), which, at the appropriate moment would quickly inject a fast drying epoxy laced with powdered aluminum, to which was applied a (well-grounded) high voltage/low amperage electric charge from a capacitor built into the case? There are cheap epoxies on the market that could harden in 3-4 minutes at that volume (rule w/ epoxies: spread out they take longer, in a glob as inside the casing of a hardrive, the reaction would run much faster). It will take them a while to chip the media out, and the electric field should do the rest.... ----------------------------------------------------------------- Ned Bade | And you all you sanctified moneybags City and Reg.
