If you only knew how much neurotic people stress about the simplest things. As a long time member of the neurotic population, I can vouch for the fact that digging through your wallet, looking for the correct card with a line of people behind you slowly growing more angry and impatient can send a neurotic person into panic overload.

The Card Managing Wallet takes the metaphorical monkey off your shoulders (or maybe non-metaphorical if you’re some weird carnival worker or Michael Jackson). The clever design adds slots to the wallets base which ejects the labeled card, saving you time and blood pressure fueled dizziness.

Price: $39.99 for 6-card holder, $59.99 for 12-card holder

The Microwulf has been causing quite a buzz lately, so we decided to take a closer look at what makes an affordable supercomputer tick. With RAM prices at rock bottom and processor prices falling through the floor, such a system can be put together by anyone with a modest budget, enough time and the inclination. The Microwulf uses 4 x AMD dual core CPUs, 8GB of RAM and 4 x Gigabit LAN cards to produce a highly respectable 26GFlops of raw processing power, 32GFlops is its theoretical peak. While it originally cost under $2470, it can presently be constructed for about $1256, give or take depending on what you pay for components where you live.

The trick to creating the Microwulf is to keep everything balanced. If you have a 1.0GHz processor, it should have 1.0 GB of RAM and a Gigabit Ethernet connection. The Microwulf makes use of four AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ AM2 CPUs, at 2.0GHz per core, the ideal amount of RAM would have been 2GB per core, in order to keep costs down to the sub $2500 budget, 1GB per core was used. Four Intel NICs and the onboard LAN of each motherboard serve as an inexpensive way for each cluster to communicate with itself. There is no plexiglass “packaging,” Threaded rods are used to space the four motherboards which are mounted on polycarbonate sheets. The result is a supercomputer for the masses with almost three times the processing power of a 3.0 GHz AMD dual-core CPU. In case you are wondering, it runs on Ubuntu Linux.

Read on for a brief interview with Professor Joel Adams and a few final thoughts on the system. (more…)

The Zin-Zin Monkey Hangers take the basic premise of the “Barrel of Monkeys” toy and apply it to the home by utilizing the monkey shape as a hook to hang a wide array of objects. In this case, bananas are used, which is a bit clich if you ask me.

If you give it some thought, these little monkeys could be quite useful. They would be perfect for holding keys, coats, bags, and plants – plus they would be right at home in a room for kids. Too bad they are a bit on the expensive side.

Price: $31.00 ( $61 for a set of 3 )
