iPad drop test: New vs Old

Postby viking60 » 23 Mar 2012, 10:59

Before it slides down to the floor and brakes. Good old newspapers are configured way better and fit nicely on my nose once fallen asleep.
Now it has been tested what the iPad can take when dropped.

Manjaro 64bit on the main box -Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 920 @ 2.67GHz and nVidia Corporation GT200b [GeForce GTX 275] (rev a1. + Centos on the server - Arch on the laptop.
