when i say threw it i mean probably equivalent to dropping it from at least 1, maybe 2 storeys up so it had some momentum to it (it was an accident … a stupid, stupid accident)
plastic would have cracked for sure and exposed the internals directly to the concrete before taking away much force, or would have bent and not really protected much
the deceleration was probably higher, but that force was spread evenly rather than on a point, and the components in a macbook are very solidly attached to the frame, which again would have helped spread the deceleration force over more area - imo
