Default Should I microwave my SEIV disk?

I mean I don't need it any more. I could always make it into a coaster, or a dog toy. Well I don't have any dogs, and I doubt my cat would fetch it for me.

A nice little attack disk would be cool. I could fling it at the neighbor kid the next time he throws trash in my yard. OR I could put it in a custom make holder and shoot it at the speeding car with no mufflers that always seems to rev its motor at 3 am right in front of my house. Pop open the garage door and POOOF out goes the disk, and ding! Score one for the good guys. Naw, I think I will just nuke it.

How about selling it or giving it to a friend.

Don't do it! What happens if your computer catches a sleeper virus, and destroys everything on your system after all your backups have become infected via your normal cycling process?

Dont worry, it is not my GOLD disk, I'd gaurd that with my life as it is only one of three game disk on my to be buried with list. No this is disk is my first SEIV game disk. I found it today. It is badly scratched. I think one of my nephews found it and decided to play frizbee with it. A clasic ruined.

I would think the microwave would be honored to nuke this fine disk.

Unless it is scratched all the way to the actual material at the center of the pLastic, it is recoverable. You can get repair kits resonably cheaply.

Attach a string and make it into a Christmas tree ornament.
Or hang it from the rear view mirror.
