I have an Exabyte VXA-1 tape drive which I want to give away for free. It takes 33GB tapes and they are very very reliable. You could shove the tapes into a freezer or dump them into boiling coffee and you would still be able to retreive the information from them. The version of the tape drive I have is external and connects using Firewire. The price of this tape drive brand new is $1,099.

I am giving the drive away for free because I am having problems with it. I don’t know if its a software problem or hardware problem. I passed it to TivoGuy and he was able to get it working but when I tried using it on my Mac it would sometimes backup the data and sometimes it would give me an error. It could be from the backup tapes, it could be a software problem or it could be a hardware problem. I am not sure and I don’t care. If you want the tape drive just leave a comment below. You will get it without any tapes and without the firewire cable. If more then one person wants the drive then I will give it to the geekiest one.

Since we are on the subject of cars here are two cool videos:

Audi RS4 vs BMW M5
Ferrari Enzo vs McLaren F1

I was browsing Autoblog and I found pictures of the new Holden SS which is basically the Lumina SS. Since everyone has a Lumina in Kuwait I figured I would post a link to pictures and specs of the upcoming model. Its supposed to do 0-60 in like 5.1 seconds which is just sick. [Link]

The Land Rover LR3 which is currently my favorite car turned out to be the least reliable luxury car according to Forbes. I knew the old Land Rovers were like the least reliable cars ever but I figured with the new generation they shaped up, guess I was wrong. [Link]

An interesting article that lists 10 points that help make a problogger. I personally have three points I follow: Post often, posts must be interesting, and posts must be short. [Link]

Just watched two funny commercials. One is for Energizer the other is for FedEx. Both won bronze at the Cannes Awards this year.

This looks complicated to do but the result is really rewarding. If you have neighbors who are stealing your Wifi you can do two things, either encryt your Wifi or have some fun with them. This site shows you how to have fun by turning every image your neighbour downloads upside-down. It should really confuse them. [Link]

Seriously this is totally gross… [Link]

This has to be one of the strangest screen savers I have ever seen. Its Mac only. [Link]
