Floppy disks for your CD drive

Here's something to momentarily baffle and then probably enrage Nick Burns (your company's computer guy).

They're 200MB mini CD-Rs disguised as standard 3.5-inch floppy disks, and they're sure to cause an entertaining freakout and/or meltdown when the Nick Burns at your workplace jumps across your desk to stop the tray from going into the computer. Ah, good times.

Available from designboom for $10 plus $4 shipping each. Hmm. I guess Nick gets the last laugh after all.

Pac-Man Christmas tree

What else could you possibly wish for for Christmas if you had this awesome Pac-Man Christmas tree in your own hometown?! Obviously, not much else! I, on the other hand, wish for a trip to Madrid to be able to admire the tree live.

Unfortunately, the tree is not interactive, I think it would be awesome if somehow you could play a Pac-Man session on it. Therefore …

My dearest Santa,

For next Christmas could you please make the tree playable and bring it to my new hometown, Stockholm?

Thank you!

Watch the video.

Intelligent Lantern has built-in speakers

Until manufacturers give in to the three people who've been clamoring for flashlight-equipped MP3 players, the Intelligent Lantern from Norm Thompson will likely reign supreme among the toe-tappin' campfire crowd.

Featuring a digital clock, AM/FM radio with local weather courtesy of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association, integrated speakers, and the ability to hook up to an MP3 player or other audio source, the 9-inch tall lantern runs off of six C batteries or the included AC adapter and car charger.

Oh, and it can help you see things in the dark too (its light is visible from a mile away). Available now for $40.

Via Crave.
