CF/Smart media/etc. : Better than optical? Surely you've by now nuked a CD - in my experience, : between that and breaking one, the data is pretty much toast. : : If you break a CD, do you think you could tape it together and get it to : spin up?! : Brian, Can't say that I have, YET. But *IF* I really wanted to "kill" a CD I'd nuke it, take it outside to the sidewalk drop it put my foot on it and do the "twist" on top of it. Flip it over and repeat, THEN break it up into a "gazillion" pieces. I don't know, I know that I wouldn't want to try it. As it might make a bit of a mess inside of your CD-ROM. . .
