PNY 2GB Thumb Drive to Come Pre-Loaded with Ghostbusters, Make All Other Thumb Drives Look Humourless
Posted by Adam Frucci at 4:50 AM on September 4, 2008
When you're going to buy a USB thumb drive, there's not much differentiating all the brands other than looks. Usually, people just grab the cheapest or the least stupid-looking. That won't be the case when PNY unleashes it's newest 2GB drive. Why? It'll come preloaded with Ghostbusters, that's why. Ghostbusters! There's no word on the pricing or what format the movie comes in, but if it's priced similarly to other 2GB drives, those other drives don't stand a chance. [Crave]

@Notch Johnson: Dr. Peter V.:This drive worked fine till Dickless here removed it w/o using the "remove hardware" trayapp.
Mayor of NYC: Is that true?
Dr. Peter V.: Yes, this man has no dick.

@badhatharry: Both of those movies are available 3 for $10 at amazon right now. Along with Yahoo Serious's other movie which isn't Young Einstein. Here's a link I got from Consumerist this morning: [www.buxr.com]

@Mayor McRib: You don't remember when you danced on the ceiling and then that other time with the broom in front of the shop? Either the drugs have not been that good to you, or you are an impostor.
But, actually, I am looking for Lionel Richie. Punk owes me money.

Watching a good movie over and over is like a visit with an old friend. I personally have seen Young Frankenstein at leaast 100 times and will stop whatever I am doing to watch it every time I see it on.

Why couldn't the drive itself have the "Ghostbusters" logo? :(

Substitute it for a version with both "Breakin'" and "Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo," and my Christmas shopping is done.

In EULA: Do you agree to believe in UFOs, astral projections, mental telepathy, ESP, clairvoyance, spirit photography, telekinetic movement, full trance mediums, the Loch Ness monster and the theory of Atlantis?
Look if this holds 2 Gigs, I'll believe anything you say.
