I don't know... I got bored and was opening up old hard drives, they worked, but they were old 2gig etc.

One of them had a grey dust on it, inward to outward, covering about half of the platter, in a PERFECT circle.You tell ME how it got there.

Heheh

I like number 19 and 20.

Question: If I want to run my harddrive upside down at a 13.25 degree angle, do I need to format it in said position to properly align the quantam structure of the electromagnetic flux field generated by the gravometric action of the rapidly fluctuating transversal actuators. Or can I just use a honking magnet to align the north south polar fields in a bilateral pattern thus alleviating the damaging effects of the rapidly rotating parallel force friction generated by the rapid deceleration of my foot in my mouth?

Heheh sounds like I should be on startrek or something.

BTW good find.

The article is great. I saw it when it came out the other day and it was just fabulous. It was really great to hear all those things proved/disproved.
