How about most rugged PC. And what it is rated to survive Falls, explosions, EMP.

Simon has a good idea. The only machines professionally built that can take some massive abuse is Panasonic toughbooks. I've seen an EMT drop it and kick it across the ambulance garage with no damage done while running. It was rather impressive.

Yeah in a magazine they poured coke on one of those panasonics and dropped it off the second floor of a house.

Gonna have to point out that we don't want any of our members doing anything dangerous or stupid and getting themselves hurt. That means no switching the live and neutral wires and plugging stuff back in. Or overclocking your pentium 2 to 5000MhZ.

I think Rankenphile's planning to come back with a new Modder's Challenge in the next couple of days, so keep your eyes open for that too.

TGS, when you get your competition finalised, start a new thread for it and I'll sticky it. Oh, and +rep for being such a damn good sport.

Thanks a million. I will let you guys know enough in advance to put it on the home page too.

No need to sit this one out Minty. IMO it's competative by nature, so if you keep winning it just means the rest of us need to get off our asses and take ya down!

I beat you, I went to help a friend installing her new setup. she called me when she was about to plug the wires. When I arrived she already screwed the mobo on the mobo tray; I plug the wires, but did not see that she screw it without the spacers (WRONG!!!) I pressed start...Boom!
