We’re embracing our inner whimsy here, offering up an unusual collection of character-driven USB flash drives (now there’s a sentence you don’t read every day). There are 15 different versions – you can’t tell which one is in the box until you open it. Described by their creators – the possibly-off-their-meds folks at Wish Come True – like this (we have purposely avoided editing a single word, punctuation mark, or trademark symbol):
Wish Come True BLOTz™ is a premiere collection of MIMOBOT designer USB flash drives presented in a blind assortment! Each individual box contains 1 of 15 brilliant drives, from the world of Wish Come True designed by our super-crack Artist Series collaborators, FriendsWithYou™ of sunny Miami, Florida. Unbox 2GB of friendly flash memory and store your data in style with MIMOBOT BLOTz!
So if you’re looking to brighten up your desk or jump bag with a splash of colorful insanity, have we got a USB flash drive for you! Best of all, they’re only $4.99 each – a great deal, since they normally sell for $19.99. If you’re a completist, you’ll want to collect all 15.
Learn more about this week’s deal here. And in closing, we’d like to leave you with this (utterly, completely bonkers) video:
On Monday morning, during the keynote address at the Worldwide Developers Conference, Apple delivered a sneak peek into the future of the pro desktop: The all-new Mac Pro.
Designed around a revolutionary unified thermal core, the all-new Mac Pro introduces a completely new pro desktop architecture and design that is optimized for performance inside and out. With next-generation Xeon processors, dual workstation-class GPUs, Thunderbolt 2, PCIe-based flash storage, and ultra-fast ECC memory, the new 9.9-inch tall Mac Pro packs an amazing amount of power into an incredibly small package.
The all-new Mac Pro is coming later this year. For more details, visit Apple’s stunning preview page.

Looking for a high-quality, spill-resistant, full-size 104-key USB keyboard that works with pretty much any recent model computer? How much would you pay? $20? $30? What if the keys were printed in high-contrast black-on-green, with incredibly easy-to-read oversize letters? $50? $60?
What if the dagnabbed thing glowed in the dark?
Well, this week, you can get such a keyboard, which normally retails for $49.99, for an almost criminally cheap $9.99. Find out all about this week’s DOTW here.
Since Microsoft rolled it out last fall, we’ve seen a lot of customers struggling with the transition to Windows 8. It’s a big departure from earlier versions of Windows, with a far steeper learning curve. That being said, Windows 8 is a powerful, secure, and flexible OS, one well worth getting to know – and master.
To help with that, we’ve added a new “wing” to our website: a Windows 8 Resource Center, with FAQs, upgrade prices, system requirements, along with links to useful articles and tutorials. Don’t put off learning Window 8 any longer – check out our Windows 8 Resource Center today.
OK, this week’s DOTW is a tad…odd.
