WIKI ANALYSISetbe: If you wanted to do a DIY self-destruct, it would be quite flebisae to plug a 555 sine generator into a little transformer attached to the DIMMs for not much money. I don't imagine it would take too much current to destroy the RAM. I might even test it sometime. ;) *puts it on the list*. You could do a the broken , and use thermite, but that's probably too expensive.As for purging the RAM, I was thinking more of an IC on board near the RAM which would hijack the bus and stick a pile of data into the memory. This is beyond the realm of DIY though, obviously, requiring some cooperation from the motherboard manufacturer.If the only kind of people we're worrying about here are the people who only have the resources to nick some DIMMs, then I think well-covered self-destructive RAM should solve the issue nicely. Unless that's just an initial attempt before they step up to torture, which could be a problem. If you're lucky, all they want is your uid 0 password. :P
