Don't Copy that Floppy

Back in 1992, piracy was rampant. What could possibly stop it? An ad that you would swear was from the 80s? A horrible rap song?

If all the current atmosphere of easy piracy thanks to p2p networks and bit torrent sites is any answer, I think people pirate just to get back at the industry for this ad.

Desktop Earth


I'm not a fan of screensavers, or much of anything running in the background while I abuse my RAM, but this active desktop is quite enticing..

Desktop Earth is a wallpaper generator for Windows. It runs whenever you're logged on and updates your wallpaper with an accurate representation of the Earth as it would be seen from space at that precise moment.

Been waiting almost a year for this...

Hard Disk

Some debate on the storage capacity on this - anywhere from 500k to 29mb. Methinks the latter. Either way, some interesting reading here and here.

Athens Monitor

5 times the pron!

I guess this is one of those "If you have to ask how much, then you can't afford it" deals, because I can't find the price anywhere..
Er, I mean, I was going to buy it, but some of their links are broken, so I changed my mind.
