the only fun hardware throwing compos *ever* were the IBM Thinkpad-throwing compos at scene event.

i actually liked the 3.5" floppy disc throwing compos. it needed some technique to really get them spinning a fly over a longer distance.

or we can make bags of them and sell them to raise more money for breakpoint!

scener boxing i'd definitely go for, that would be awesome

but taking out your frustrations destructively on inanimate objects is a class of activity akin to posting on 4chan or spying on your sister in the shower

well, there's always the fun element.

once at inerciademoparty (don't forget to come) we had this compo called "remote desktop assembly". basically, one had to assemble components in a pc from about 10 meters distance. this means throwing cpu, mem, hd and floppy into a case with a motherboard. it wasn't a strenght competition, but a precision one.

it was fun.

though I always preferred monitor throwing.

In regards to the previous two posts, it's not gay because the balls don't touch.

It's obvious that "Amiga rules" and "PC suxxx". Look at the market in this day and age. Everybody uses Amigas and IBM failed miserably selling their hardware in the early 90s.

Oh wai-

By the way, the Commodore 64 is the single most sold home-computer ever. :-)
