Don’t go getting any ideas with the title, mister. This here is straight out of the Doom and Apogee days. Shareware anyone? Keep your games, movies and other things totaling larger than 1.44MB on this floppy disk flash drive. I have no idea who made it, how much it costs or if it requires OS/2. Link

Update: Now with more Nazi flavah! Sometimes, a mustache can be a person’s calling card. In fact, the facial hair itself can become more famous than the poor mustached man. In these instances, the mustache and the man are probably of equal value. I must admit, I’m jealous of mustaches of such caliber. With the powers vested in us by ...

Is this really necessary? Come on now. At this point the list of available Nintendo Wii accessories is getting out of control. What’s next? An egg whisk add-on that I can use to play those ridiculous cooking games? No thanks. Link

Personally, putting new shells on consoles was never my thing. I never understood why someone would risk taking apart their shiny new PlayStation or Sega Dreamcast so that they could wrap it up in a clear, translucent layer of plastic. But such is life, as well as this Nintendo DSi case. Created by accessories manufacturer XCM, the shell lets you ...

What’s a programmer to do. Buy a hard-to-find LED strip? Most likely. He’ll then probably spend weeks hacking it so he can interface it with an Arduino. Afterwards, the LEDs will fade in and fade out for weeks to come, as our hero desperately tries to make sense of all this. After meeting with a friend, our hero and his ...

Woohoo! Maybe now my shares of Sirius-XM will actually gain a little on this news. But yeah! Apple FINALLY released the Sirius-XM iPhone app today and it comes with a few surprises that subscribers will gladly welcome. The big kahuna is that you can stream satellite radio over 3G, turning your iPhone into the ultimate portable radio. It also sports ...

Update: Doesn’t seem to be showing up on Apple’s iPhone OS 3.0 site, but the “Check for updates” button on the iPhone interface on iTunes does the trick. It’s up on the site now! Yipeee! The wait is finally over! Apple has officially released the iPhone 3.0 OS upgrade, which includes copy & paste, MMS, peer-to-peer gaming, tethering plus 100 ...

With the iPhone 3.0 OS officially dropping today (though some of us have had ours for a week and have since hacked it for tethering!), MLB.com is pulling all punches with its new iPhone App, At Bat. While the app itself isn’t new, the 3.0 update will give owners the chance to stream live baseball games at no additional cost. ...

Earlier in the year, Apple threw a hissy fit over the Palm Pre and its multi-touch abilities. Now Apple is going public again without naming any names. It states that third-party DMPs may sync with iTunes but that it’s totally unsupported and they could lose that feature in the future. This means that Apple will soon release an iTunes update ...

What is the deal with all these people ripping apart perfectly good video game consoles in favor of upgrading them with the latest technology? Sometimes retro is better! That being said, this is a nice looking iPod dock. It’s a broken iPod clock/radio shoved inside an Atari 2600 shell. My guess is that this mod took no more than an ...
