Description: Well, you've seen my Cyberstorm from the outside, now have a look at its insides... (By the way can I claim a special prize for the first person to post an X-ray of Amiga-related hardware on the web?) :-D Picture Stats: Views: 833 Filesize: 224.05kB Height: 768 Width: 1024 Posted by: X-ray at June 12, 2009, 10:27:48 PM Image Linking Codes

Nah, that would be the lost souls of the dead PPC-boards at DCE :-D |

Cass Posts:826 | October 04, 2004, 02:26:18 PM The most original AMiGA pic! Congratulations :-D (Just voted, gave it a 10!) Is there any chance seeing a 3D-CAT scan reconstruction of some piece of amiga h/w?! Hehehe ;-) |
X-ray Posts:4370 | August 06, 2004, 01:58:30 PM @ Karlos: No, my good man, X-raying it is not harmful. These items all get X-rayed when you send them in the mail or if they go through customs anyway. And I keep the X-ray beam limited to a very reasonable exposure: 44kVp and 3.2mAs Which translates into 44 thousand volts potential difference, with 3.2 milli-Amps delivered over 1 second. I once did a test to see if I could damage a floppy disk (the data on it) with X-radiation, and in that test I wrote a whole lot of files onto a 880k disk and then exposed that to a continuous X-ray beam rated at 90kVp for a period of 30 seconds. I can't remember what the mA was, but all I know is the exposure was significantly more than what they use to screen your stuff at the airport!!! Result: disk was fine. You see this is electromagnetic radiation in the X-ray spectrum. It is ionizing, but controllable. Now the stuff that came out of Chernobyl was gamma and particle radiation, and that stuff is uncontrolled "Radiationus Horriblus Ionizationus Electronicus Defunctus". :-o If I remember correctly it actually killed several of their remotely-piloted surveillance robots by causing massive ionization-induced short circuits. |
