Have you seen iPod dissection pictures? You don't know how small hard
drives can be.

Yeah, but 10 years ago?

Wow... it *really* doesn't look like there's anywhere near enough space
there...
And also, I'll have to take the main casing apart to get at that. *sigh*

Post pictures.
"Pictures of people unpacking boxes of hardware is the new geek porn."
I think it applies to people putting hardware apart too. I mean,
everyone here has surely seen the insides of a desktop PC, but not
everyone has seen the insides of a laptop in person (or an iPod; that's
why there are dissection pics on the net for every single iPod model).

Beat me to it by eons with that link. Well, I had that page signposted
this afternoon, but was looking for something better, but it isn't there for
the 100S notebook. Too old for the 'net methinks. Google isn't good for a
lot of things it seems.

There's many things I looked for and concluded were "too old for the
net". (has anyone heard of "3D Dinosaur Adventure" from "Knowledge
Adventure"?)

Man where did you find that? Just put the whole thing in a bonfire
somewhere!

Actually, I was thinking, if I burry it in, say, 5 Kg or thermite and
light the sucker... in a few moments' time the entire chasis should be a
pool of molten steel. I'm pretty sure there won't be too many magnetic
domains intact on the surface of the platters - if endeed those surfaces
stille exist.
On the other hand... where would I buy thermite from?

Why, you just make it yourself. Isn't that the stuff where you get a load
of aluminium filings and rust and then light it? YOu need a strip of
magnesium to light it though IIRC from school.
