Now that you know how tough this product is, we would like to share with you just a few of the ideas we did think
of if you wanted to break this product. The first idea we had is to insert the Compact Flash card and then ship or
transport the whole thing in a relatively unprotected container. This will undoubtedly cause the Compact Flash card
to be jammed into the socket so hard that it breaks the socket itself rendering the product useless (not that we did
something like that, because we didn’t, but if we did, that is what happened).
Another idea we had was to use the armored touch screen with water spilled on it. That idea failed and the touch
screen just continued to work as usual. We gave it some more thought and came up with an even better idea;
operate the touch screen outside during a torrential rainstorm! Not that we tried it, because we didn’t, but if we had,
there may have been some smoke and irrevocable damage to the internal circuitry.
The easiest way to break this product is to drop it. No, we aren’t talking about six inches from the bottom of your
step stool to the floor, we mean off the side of a two-story building (again, it is not that we actually tried it). It is
interesting to note that in this scenario the survival of the product does depend slightly on what stops the fall. A pile
of leaves didn’t seem to help, that is, we do not think it would help, but perhaps a couple of soft mattresses would do
the trick. Also, please be careful of the objects (and people) below when throwing this product from high places.
In conclusion, it takes a lot of effort and brainstorming to come up with ways to break this product. We know that
the faster you break it, the smarter you must be. That is why we ask that you contact us immediately if this product
is not working for you, so that we can learn from you and include more Important Information on how to break this
thing in the future. Also, if you have an idea about something that you think might break it, contact us first, we’d
love to hear about it and then you don’t actually have to break it.
Thank you for taking the time to read this important information! We hope you enjoy using your new ShowTouch
as much as we enjoyed designing it. Oh, and tell your boss we think you should get a raise for reading this manual.
