@pitch LOL, now I'm reminded of the time I got frustrated with a coworker's failure to get a dropper to infect a VM, and decided the solution was disposable hardware.
I went to Fry's Electronics and asked the sales dude for their cheapest laptop.
When he found out I wanted to deliberately infect it with malware he looked at me as if I were trying to adopt a puppy to experiment on.
Sold me the laptop though, and I was able to get the malware to ware its mals.
