[QUOTE=Robbazking;19116339][media]*Diy Vid*[/media][/QUOTE] Very awesome Also that cup one with the 30 usb ports is meant to be powered with one. I guess they were trying to see how far they could push it.
[QUOTE=Robbazking;19116339][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7sFaVDvq63k[/media][/QUOTE] Wow, I guess I should go to ebay.ca now...
[QUOTE=Robbazking;19116339][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7sFaVDvq63k[/media][/QUOTE] And as it cools your drink it burns a hole in your desk! :buddy:
[QUOTE=jblack;19105375]Huh, it's 500mA per port. Why would you have a 6-port card if you can have only one HDD in it and the rest won't power up? You can draw even more than 500mA per port with electronics btw...[/QUOTE] Most old USB 1.x controllers had shared power (at least all the ones I've seen, and I've seen quite a few). USB 2.x can either have shared or individual depending on if the manufacturer was being cheap or not.
[QUOTE=cheeseman52;19112711]How is this [url]http://www.oneinchpunch.net/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/life-size-gundam.jpg[/url] not useful?[/QUOTE] Useless. I want my drive-bay toaster :argh:

[QUOTE=ryanmh;19097460]So you don't need to get up from your computer when you need a light [img]http://filesmelt.com/downloader/smoke1.png[/img] [url=http://www.frozencpu.com/products/1282/cig-01/PC_12V_Cigarette_Lighter_Adapter_Lian_Li_525_Drive_Bay_-_Silver.html?tl=g39]Buy here[/url][/QUOTE] Not practical for lighting cigarettes, more practical use would be using it for a cell-phone car charger. (Not all phones use standard USB cables, and for the few that do, many don't charge the battery.)
[QUOTE=TrafficMan;19120933]And as it cools your drink it burns a hole in your desk! :buddy:[/QUOTE] You could easily disperse the heat. Take a small fan and have it blowing onto the hot area.

[QUOTE=Aurora93;19175913]*Aquarium Mac*[/QUOTE] I think that's the best use for an old mac I have ever seen.
[QUOTE=zanraptora;19187938]I think that's the best use for an old mac I have ever seen.[/QUOTE] Besides the trash.

[QUOTE=SailorBacon;19104386][img]http://www.thinkgeek.com/images/products/zoom/led_beverage_holder.jpg[/img] Always have a cold beer on those long TF2 nights...[/QUOTE] What if you modified it and have it attached to a cpu heatsink and the heat can be pulled through a vent.

[QUOTE=gparent;19103646]I found something simpler. [media]http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/469/img1239s.jpg[/media] Seriously. They cost like 2 cents.[/QUOTE] [media]http://i25.tinypic.com/sc5rgg.jpg[/media] Yeah, they're pretty good.
I use my palm-sized torch for labs with 1300c precision flame (as seen on breaking bad!!) suckers.
