I was reading an article online, and of course, as a geek, the title "FBI Computer Forensics" caught my eye.

A FBI lab in San Diego let the media in and allowed them to take some shots.

This image caught my eye. Notice the tool that is connected to the hard drive. What is that tool called? Is there even anything like this out in the market, or is just toys for the government?

I just found this interesting.

Did I really post this in Web Development? I thought that I had posted it in the Hardware, Components and Peripherals forum. Either way, thanks for moving this to the right place!

Can I ask, what to you guys, will be a very stupid question? (I'm going to anyway.) If I threw my laptop into the bathtub would it be ruined beyond all recovery? I ask this because in movies (where all of my computing knowledge comes from) they always go through elaborate means to destroy their computers (like...making them explode somehow) and I've always wondered if that's really necessary. Would a bottle of water do the trick or would it just ruin the laptop?
