One means of completely erasing a computer’s hard drive is to surround the tower/processor with magnets (preferably strong ones!). Leave them there for as long a period as possible, then remove them and destroy all evidence of your involvement and/or pin the blame on someone else you don’t like by dumping the magnets in their possession without their knowledge. Note: this completely screws the person whose computer’s hard driv you destroy. make sure the person really deserves it before doing it (and DON’T GET CAUGHT!!!)
