BULLSHIT!! There are good reasons to take hard drives apart. I'm going to
take apart the hard drive from an original IBM PC-AT, take the platter and
machine a knife edge on at, and throw it at the neck of the next IBM
salescritter I run across!!

Those of you with these drives know exactly what I mean. You also know
that these things have already been taken apart enough times the screws may
be stripped.
