Iroquois sent along these pictures of a PC damaged in transit from the UK to Australia. Pretty nasty, looks like an impact to the box was hard enough to dent the case and cause the CPU cooler to rip free of the socket, rattling around inside the system.


 

 

The lesson here is to pack your PC properly when transporting it - especially from one side of the world to the other! Removing the CPU cooler is a first step - uninstalling expensive/heavy cards and individually packaging them is a good idea too.

Of course, I always transport my PC safely. :)
