USB Powered Missile Launcher
If you work in a cubicle then a USB Missile Launcher is a must. This little guy moves Left, Right, Up, Down and has some pre-recorded sound effects. It has the ability to shoot more than 10 feet and has three missles that you can launch at someone when they are talking too loud on the phone or just for fun. It comes with quick start guide and the driver disc. Don’t expect a high quality part here, but the fun factor will be high enough to make up for the quality.
OCZ Core Series V2 30GB Solid State Drive
Solid state drives are a very new technology but they are already making big waves. SSDs offer you low latency access, incredible read speeds, with modest write and random write speeds. Right now the biggest issue with SSDs are their price to performance ratio. OCZ’s Core Series V2 isn’t the fastest SSD on the market but it is one of the cheapest with the 30GB model selling for $70, or $50 after rebate. While 30GB isn’t much to work with, two 30GB SSDs in RAID0 would offer 60GB of fast storage. If you want to take part in the SSD revolution, plunge in head first with an OCZ Core Series V2.
