Men who feel strong in the justice of their cause, or confident in their powers, do not waste breath in childish boasts of their own superiority and querulous depreciation of their antagonists.

geeky cool toys

Wouldn't it be great if Microsoft made a "magic 8-ball" giveaway where the answer was always .NET? I'd love one of those.

How about a *small* USB powered device that generates heat waves and then projects an image of your choosing onto that "surface"? I think that would be cool.

If you could dream up any geeky toy, what would it be? (Sorry... the USB powered missile launcher already exists.)

I would love a video camera that records everything you look at. If you see something interesting you just push a button and it saves off the last 5 minutes. It would need to be small enough to wear at all times and would be perfect for those "Did you see that?" moments.

I really want a lightsaber...

okay...

How about a USB device that displays a holographic avatar (or multiple) of people in your group...their status (the avatar sleeps, etc.), availability, whereabouts, etc.
