A friend of mine dropped his hp11 out the window at school.
4 floors. Pieces of hp11 everywhere. He got all pieces he could find, 
put them together, and never had any trouble with the calculator
during the 2 remaining years in high school. Kind of impressive really.
I never dared that stunt with my TI-59..
