Re: XP Service Pack 2 Bomb

It should be noted that the article claims that if you have an illegal copy of Windows your boot partition will be overwritten with garbage data. This is not the same as destroying hardware.

To the average consumer their computer is unusable, but to a skilled technician the data can be restored and a new operating system can be re-installed.
