Anyone who was not this lucky?

From what height did you drop it? (I dropped mine about 70 cm from the floor)

--Tobias

Mine was dropped onto a wooden floor from the height of the hands of my three

right-most part - so program numbers are quite hard to decipher. Program 1 is
not shown, two and three are identical, etc.
