I'd say boot with a knoppix live cd and run something like the following:
shred -vfz -n 10 /dev/hda
That'll overwrite the hard disk 10 times with 0s. Increase the n count
proportional to your level of paranoia :)

They will soon after want her corporate laptop back. Not that she has
anything to hide, but she'd like to scrub the NTFS partition to make
undelete/forensics difficult. I have a couple of ubuntu boxes that could
employ a usb enclosure for this....
Any thoughts, pointers?
