Yes, that's a fair question Joe and one that most folks must have wondered.

I'm far from being a 'techie' but it's logical to believe that tampering with digital stored data would be easy enough.
The whole world knows those black boxes were taken away and held for a few days so I guess there's significant extra scrutiny.

My thinking is more around the scientific analysis of the wreckage. Surely forensics can identify so much more about the explosion, about the damage done and likely about the type of missile that caused the plane to come down and more's to the point who manufactured it.
