    Drop it from about 1m high... It shouldn't be too far of 1500G deceleration when it hits the floor :D

    I would have guessed something like dropping it, I doubt any centrifuge would be able to reach those levels.

    saw this a few weeks ago on IET magazine.
    Intel are getting into everything: SSD, graphics, micro-devices! only thing they are not into is casing and sound cards!
