I do this on my machines at home. Use ntfsclone and gzip to create compressed image files on a bootable linux partition. You can then create some custom scripts to ask for permission then restore the image automatically.
Assuming that all machines are using NTFS...
... and no, I'm not saying this because I want to see his collection. I'm saying this because there could be at least three different relevant definitions of porn here, and we need to know which one is being used:
So... A forth...
Pornography as blessed in the name of Jihad
So bin Laden had a collection of porn. So did most of the 'men who killed him. What does that mean? It means that, in addition to being a terrorist, bin Laden was also a normal human being who wasn't a lot different than many of us on different levels.
Well... it's not very stupid to me actually... The people that look up to Bin Laudin are Extreme Muslims. If he were truly watching homosexual porn, or American porn... well, it would discredit him in the eyes of his followers. He would not be the great imam... but... as you stated just another flawed human being... A man in a world of extremes that cannot win against his passions... how can he be a holy leader of the Jihad?
Porn is often how terrorist use stenography to communicate amongst each other covertly.
Not this bunch... We're pretty sure how he communicated with his people... nice try though.

... and while we are at it, we need to standardize on a national language. I vote for Java or Perl.
OK, but with comments in pig-latin.
Imperial is more "humanly" practical...
- For inches to feet, 12 is a really nice number. You can halve it, quarter it and third it. With base 10, you have a hard time with thirds -- and even quarters are not integers. Such measures are better for building.
- Miles are 8 furlongs (a furlong being the amount of distance an ox could plow before taking a rest), and the mile is also roughly equivalent to a roman measurement of 1000 paces -- that's a nice way to think about how far you should walk before taking a sip from your canteen. Sorry, but kilometers don't do it for me.
Imperial is simple for a human being to "visualize"...
- Inches are about a thumb-width -- it's a nice physical measure, and a nice rule of thumb.
- There are about 4 inches in a hand -- which is roughly knuckle to knuckle.
- There are three hands to a foot.
- The measure of a man's arm from fingertip to elbow is approximately a foot and a half -- a measure also known as a cubit.
- Yards of cloth in stores used to be commonly measured by hand -- by stretching out the cloth an arm-width away from the center of the body... When I was young I saw women at the cash register measuring out cloth by hand -- it was common-place.
- Teaspoons are teaspoons -- is there an convenient equivalent measure in metric for a sip of something?
- Tablespoons are tablespoons -- same again as teaspoons... Is there a ready replacement even on metric kitchen tables?
Imperial is better on the human stomach.
- A cup is a nice amount for your coffee. I don't want to ask for 225ml (or whatever) measure of coffee -- I want my darned cup.
- A pint and a quart are really nice measures for beer in the tummy. I DON'T WANT a Liter of beer. I want to "mind my pints and quarts."
- An ounce is a nice shot of liquor. I know three of them will put me down for the night.

2) When sitting, should respond with "You feel very comfortable here" or should do one of the following:
________a) Grant a wish or increase your luck.
________b) Allow you to genocide something.
________c) Identify things in you are carrying.
________d) Make you feel much better by healing you completely, curing you from sickness, blindness, and wounded legs.

Whereupon the said throne may vanish in a puff of smoke.
Upon kicking it, depending upon how lucky you are, you would either destroy the throne, breaking loose 200GP, and exercise your dexterity... (well you could possibly fail to do so and injure yourself), or if you are lucky dislodge some gems and gold... and/or trigger a trap door.
That, my friends, would be a true geek's throne, in a true geek's throne room.
