Free USB Keys From Microsoft

Gizmodo helpfully links to a USB Key giveaway sponsered by… Microsoft!

Do you have a first and last name and perhaps a mailing address? Well, go ahead and take some of Bill’s hard-earned dosh by requesting a Microsoft USB key containing handy FAQs, software licensing briefs, and additional information.

I’m normally not down with promoting anything from Microsoft, but if they wanna give away free stuff, who’m I to stop them?

Top 10 Videogame Weapons

IGN is running a fun little article, titled, “Top 10 Tuesday: Tom’s Favorite Videogame Weapons.” It’s actually kinda scary how many of those video games I’ve played!

I do think that Duke Nukem 3-D‘s Shrink Ray was robbed, though. It shoulda been number one!

This amazing tool allows you to miniaturize your target and squash it under your boot like a dung beetle. Additionally, you can attach a mirror to the end and shrink yourself, which can be handy when you need to escape a gypsy curse. There is also another model called The Expander that has the reverse function, although it leaves a bit of a mess when your target explodes. I tried to obtain that one from my original seller, but he said he had to make a “sequel.” I haven’t heard from him in some time.
