At least I know iMacs are tough now

I was just replacing an ethernet cable from a laptop by lazily tilting my iMac forward and poking at the ethernet port with the cable while looking over the top.

Of course - the iMac slipped out of my hands and crashed directly on the desk, screen first. I'm talking a HARD slam. Sounded like a gunshot. I don't think I've ever subjected a piece of computer equipment to that kind of force. Not even close.

I assumed there would be spider web cracks all over the screen but no. Nothing. It's crackless.

I learned my lesson cheaply thank God.
