XBox 360 Update Allows USB Hard Drives

When the XBox 360 first came out, the hard drive that came standard – at least on the higher up model – just seemed like it wouldn’t be enough. After all, with all the DLC that Microsoft was planning for the console, there was no way that 20GB would be enough. The upgrades kept coming along, Netflix was added, DLC got bigger and bigger … Well, you know the result. So Microsoft decides a little while back to offer a 250GB drive for the 360, and decided to price it at $129. Even the most expensive 250GB drive on NewEgg is still $30 cheaper, and the pricey drive just feels Read more »

K95 USB waterproof 2GB flash drive

The teacher asked… errr… my mom washed it! But you have to give this young boy the credit of having something original to say. I guess his excuse of “the dog ate it” isn’t believable now.

Thumbs Up For This Thumb Drive

Talk about weird USB flash disks! I thought that I had seem them all – various balls, cartoon characters, die cast cars, and more. Yet this thumb drive from Geek Stuff 4 U tops them all. See that? And you thought I meant “thumb drive” in the usual sense of the word! Also known as the Yakuza finger, this removable storage device is literally in the form of a thumb. Can anyone guess why? I was just wondering why they chose “Yakuza” when they could very well have named the flash drive from any other group with similar (supposed) activities. Maybe because it was conceptualized and made in Japan? Anyhow, Read more »
