bwhsh8r Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Actually I considered that option... but c'mon, where in the world could he find a magnet big enough. emm... a regular magnet, just wipe it across the hdd and nothing at all will be recoverable.

MacOSMatt Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 interesting post.. as much as i dont get it. if u want to destroy the comp and hdd in one blow.. i would say soak it all in water, then turn it on with a stick and watch the fireworks this is just theory, cant guarantee it would kill everything.. but it would be fun to try Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/40047-how-do-i-crash-my-computer/#findComment-285925 Share on other sites More sharing options...
