the 1st 3D printer hits the streets

iModela USB 3D Printer is More of a Miniature Lumber Mill...
Think of this as a 3D Cricut machine. It uses a rotary tool to carve shapes fed from a CAD program into Balsa wood or other appropriate media. Roland DG includes 3D modeling software along with the iModela that should be focused on designing shapes for 'printing'. Once done with the design, load an appropriately sized chunk of wood into the pyramid shaped printer, align it, and you are ready to go.

ok its not hardware but it's for your hardware, this is really cool check this out:

Mouse without borders
Mouse w/o Borders makes you the captain of your computer fleet by allowing you to control up to 4 computers from a single mouse and keyboard. This means that with Mouse w/o Borders you can drag and drop or copy and paste text, media, and all types of files across computers.


i just tried it on 2 computers, its pretty handy.

a KVM is basically a "splitter box" that you plug 1 keyb and mouse and switch between multiple machines.

Nothing wrong with being a dim blonde. Just means you like things nice and simple so they don't go wrong. Also blondes have wayyyyyyy more fun ;)

The All-in-One PC that transforms into a tablet: Meet the world's first All-in-One PC to feature all the performance of Windows 8 desktop and the flexibility of a tablet. ASUS Transformer AiO is perfect for productivity, but detach its 18.4-inch Full HD display and it instantly transforms into a multi-touch Android tablet.

i'm not sure if it can still run windows 8 while undocked, but i'm sure we'll see that in some future version.

What do you get when you cross the oculus rift headset (VR) and a 360º treadmill and a light gun ?



idk if its gonna take off, it looks to much like one of them baby walkers.

Take that 360º platform, put a big enough trampoline around it and give the user full freedom of motion.

maybe when he's old enough he can take the training ramp off lol
