    Crazy story if you actually go the link and read it. I am surprised the hard drive survived as the bottom left bullet looks to be close to it...

    IMHO, the picture would have been better utilized on the "I think I killed my Mac" thread.

    That is crazy and quite disturbing. Although I deeply respect Israel, blowing up an American's laptop because she is an arab or a muslim is seriously not cool.

    The hard drive is on the other side. It's on the left when you flip it up side down so that means it's on the right.

    Oh - so now they're not bulletproof :rolleyes:

    You'd think with the most idiot-accommodating backup arrangement out there, she'd have one.

    Im agreeing with Mr Cheerful :) who in their right mind .. or left side either... travels overseas with NEEDED data and no backup !!!

    Move that round that is almost centered an inch forward and 3 inches to the right and it would have toasted the HDD

    If it was calculated out into a percentage, it would probably shock you! No one thinks that it will happen to them until it's too late.

    Yeah but it's the safest method of rendering a bomb safe. Clearing the area and intentionally detonating a bomb is far more safer for the defuser than opening the "laptop" and having it explode.

    And plus, if it were C4, it would do absolutely nothing.

    You'd be surprised at what it takes to set off some types of explosives. You could burn some explosives without it going off.

    Regarding video: Her voice is grating on my nerves.

    I wonder if she could get Apple to replace her notebook, after all, it's lots of free publicity.
