Art Lebedev may be best known round these parts for its OLED fixation and the long, drawn out means in which it applies it to an actual product, but the firm also regularly churns out a number of decidedly more low-tech but equally geeky items -- a range that it's further expanded today. That comes in the form of the "Dosugus" cushion, which should be a familiar sight to anyone of a certain age and would likely warm the cold, nerdy heart of anyone that receives it gift. At under $30, it also costs about the price of a couple of keys on the Optimus Maximus keyboard and, what's more, it's actually available the day it's announced.
I want to see that Kate.jpg file.... sounds hot
Wow. Good call.

You're right.
lol... pron folder.
lol @ the Pron folder and Trojan.exe
I would usually label this tacky or cheesy, but I actually kinda like it.
How ironic. In this case, having trojans in there affords the user protection, rather than harms the user.
Can it be customized? If so, please add the following directories:
TELIX, ZMODEM, QUIKMENU, THEDRAW, SIERRA, LUCASARTS, DOOM
This pillow costs like 1/6th of an Optimus key at the rate Optimus is going.
It should be in alphabetical order.
/w FTW, my friend...
(it is in alphabetical order, from left to right and then top to bottom.)
It is in alphabetical order. It is just that is from left to right instead of being up to down
Silly me, can you tell I'm in a hurry?
Still weird being sorted like that...
horoscope.exe ....we all know that's adware...lol
Too many files with names over 8 characters, and there's too many folders that should probably be in the root dir are inside this "always" folder, particularly CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT.
Wow, what utter crap!
wo..wo...hold on there! 'Hiberfil.sys'?? That's way uncool. We only used to have rocker switches to turn the computer on or off. Hibernate? Oh Puhleeeze!
real geeks use Linux, not DOS!
by C:\always, I assume he means ~/always, right? What's up with all the escape sequences?
Can we add [baby_got_bak] ?
The shipping charge for this and a T-shirt is 60 bux. No thanks!!!
I can't believe these guys are a well known and seemingly respected name in Industrial Design industry. Unless the brief for all their stuff is "get featured on engadget", all of their designs are solutions to nonexistant problems and gimmick funny-for-two-seconds products. Their motto, "Design will save the world" certainly doesn't echo in their portfolio, as I have yet to see something truly innovative.
Please show us your work.
Look! A product they can actually produce and ship!
They probably still won't though. What is with this company? Its just bullshit.
In a truly geeky way that is kinda cool. Hooray for geekiness!
Optimus, lol, nice way of advertising
And LOST and kate.jpg, he must be a Lost fan
C:>sleep.bat
sleep.exe
rem.exe
dream.exe
Error: Not enough conventional memory.

I want one with a BSoD!
I've been wondering why no one makes those. You could call them BSODT's™
Never mind. They do: http://www.errorwear.com/index.php
Rule 34.
Do they charge by the thread? I'm too scared to purchase a whole cushion from Art Lebedev.
That's totally cool =D
Too bad can't have one.. or two =( Where do they sell it anyway? Is that some US based thing?
BTW... Can u add 3rd party programs? What happens after format/fdisk?
C:>cls
C:>shutdown /f
That is geeky cool! Wonder if my wife would buy that for me for Christmas :)
autoexec and config.sys should be in c:\
Oh... Joke.
ALWAYS in MY_DREAMS. I like.
