Green House Takes "Thumb Drive" Literally

btarunr · Aug 27, 2012, 01:28 PM

If PC gadgets shaped like body parts don't creep you out as much as they do us, you'll be able to bear Green House' latest creation. The Japanese company took the idea of a thumb drive a little too literally, and shaped one just like a human thumb. Measuring 23.6 x 25.6 x 61 mm (WxDxH), and weighing a little over 19 g, the GH-UFD4GYUBI from Green House is a USB 2.0 flash drive available in capacities up to 4 GB. You can grab one for 1,980 JPY (US $25.8) if you think "thumb" drives don't creep you out, or if you don't mind people mistaking you for someone from a thumb-collecting Mafia gang.

Useful if you have a prosthetic hand with a PC inside and a USB port in the right place.

Other than that...

THIS could tell a vital story just like Wizzard Of Oz...

there was a massive hurricane and that laptop and its user/owner (and his dog tutu - name changed for copyright reasons...) got sucked up and dropped in a far away land, when the laptops owner woke up after being slammed into the dirt at more then 100mph he found his laptop and upon close inspection. it had fallen on and crushed 'thing' from the Adam's family, and so it begins....

following the yellow cobblestone road*

Yes and they are now using the hollowed out thumbs of political slaves and various other prisoners who end up making cheap products for us in labor camps.
