[GTALUG] Ten grand for this?

From Metro News today:

Two top McGuinty aides charged in gas plants computer probe .... Faist was paid $10,000 for wiping the drives out of the taxpayer-funded Liberal caucus budget, police allege. The party subsequently repaid the sum to the public treasury. .... Ten grand to erase some hard drives? Boot a Linux CD or USBKey. Change to the root directory. rm -rf *. Done. Or maybe it was $50.00 to erase the drives and $9950.00 for 'discretion'. -- Peter Hiscocks Syscomp Electronic Design Limited, Toronto http://www.syscompdesign.com USB Oscilloscope and Waveform Generator 647-839-0325
