USB LED Light Tube Speaker is Like Bad Sci-Fi Prop For Your Desk
Posted by Gizmodo US Edition at 8:51 PM on July 3, 2008
This transparent, glowing USB speaker is either missing one glowing arm to make it look like a flux capacitor, or has one arm too many to be the light on top of the TARDIS. It's weird. But if you're into EL-wire PC case modding, then I suppose this blue LED-lit USB speaker from Brando might be up your street. Measuring 15cm long, it takes power from USB, has an audio-in socket and costs US$22. [Brando]

Super.
Let's get a red shirt to go down to the planet and get that thing it needs to make us go.
We are smart.

For your desk? Considering most of our desks are bathed in fluorescent light all day long, I don't think this thing is very useful for that purpose. However, I do think it would be popular among the college kids who want to jam out in their "grow" closets.

If you get two, you get that ubiquitos sci-fi prop used in a crap load of movies, like Airplane 2 about 1:45 in.

That red flashing thing is in just about every science fiction thing ever produced by Paramount since 1979, including 2 Star Trek movies and several individual ST episodes.
And THAT is exactly why I would buy one of these things.
