RE: Patriot Pyro SATA III Solid State Drive Review

Finally a good price!

Its been getting hard to manange my 64GB! Kinda funny that, that is what they look like inside. I guess I just always imagined a big solid block of silicone :P

Since they are just a bunch of 15GB flash drives linked together, you would figure that the price would have been more reasonable from the get-go! But just like Apple...If they CAN gouge you ...They will.

RE: LaCie And Christofle Reveal $130 4GB Silver-Plated USB Drive

Deeer....Orky!

This is another attempt to hit that egotistical market of those people who buy Apples because they seem more fashionable and make like a statement of your eco sensibility over practicality:P

I have a Tiffany key fob that is silver. beyond the functionality I see absolutely no reason for it. After a year it is all tarnished and scratched from sitting in my pocket. The ones I had before that only cost a buck fiddy worked just as well.

I don't complain because it was a gift. But for the price of that little piece of silver, as a guy I would have preferred a new Onkyo HT receiver :P She is learning though :) I still will never understand the fascination of needing a 15K Tiffany necklace when you can also get a new Jetta for that price:P

I look at that drive and wonder about its functionality? With all that silver on both sides in that flat form factor, how is it going to fit into most USB slots? It is probably only designed to fit in the side port of the Macbook, and nothing else will say douche louder than that!

This whole key-like thing has been done before. I must have a few pieces of USB swag from trade shows that look like real keys with company logos on them.

RE: Research Finds That All USB Devices Can Be Used For Data Theft

I have not heard about this beforehand nor have I seen anything about a USB keyboard logging the user's data or a weird device installing some keylogger onto a users computer. It's a bad day for any people who want to use these exploits for malicious uses because the major companies are going to plug up those holes faster then they can finish construction on the 55.
