    Default The dumb/worthless computer part thread.

    I'll get it started with this new product I saw today.

    CDHome 5.25" Bay Device Holder for 7 x CD/CDR/DVD Disks
    Right on over here.

    Yeah thats right its 5.25" Bay Disk holder. It holds a whopping 7 disks!





    I wouldn't buy one of those for a dollar even.

    So you guys seen any dumb or worthless computer parts or accessories?

    Actually, that's not a bad idea. All (well, seven of) your frequently used discs in one convenient place.

    Rather pricey, but I like the idea. I'd pay a fiver for one, if I had a spare bay.

    Dumb things, all those stupid things which plug into USB ports and do nothing. Lava lamps (which don't actualy contain any blobby lava, they just light up), humping dogs, coffee cup warmers (with external PSU's, wtf?)

    The humping dog thing is HILARIOUS! If it was a flash drive too, and you could stop the humping (it's noisy) then it would be a killer product. Haha.. or it only humps when you are uploading to it.. that would be awesome.

    I have some old computers with modems in those slots. What's with the picture of the Asus motherboard on near the bottom of the page?
