A couple of notes for MusicSkins, LLC. First, Never use the word "bling" in your PR. Ever. Second, if David Hasselhoff hears that you're licensing images from legendary recording artists to "custom-bling" Seagate hard drives and you leave him out of it, you'll soon find your office deluged with phone calls, faxes, and emails from the man, desperate to get in on the action. (And we know all about his tenacity: we've been involved in at least one hot Hollywood project that he's tried to shoe-horn his way into.) Anyways, if you're inexplicably interested, check it out: MusicSkins (known for vinyl covers for laptops and iPods, among other things) has licensed a "vast range" of images from either artists or their crypt-keepers and will sell you one for your favorite Free Agent To Go HDD. Prices range from $15 to $30, although for a limited time one can receive 20 percent off any cover and 35 free songs from eMusic when registering your FreeAgent Go with Seagate. And the best news? The cover is removable, so if you ever move out of the dorms (or stop living like you're in a dorm) you can hide it somewhere.
You must mean Seagate drives. Not me. The shittiest drives I've used yet, at work and at home. A pretty picture won't make them run any better me thinks.
LOOK! I etched 50-cent on my Commodore 64! I'm not a geek anymore! Right? Lame beyond belief. My HDD will stay in my 'puter, or a regular enclosure thanks. (I hate rap btw)
"I'm looking for a solid state drive, around 32 to 64GB, for use in my web server. The drive will contain my web sites and the operating system, either Windows Server 2008 R2 or Ubuntu. Large storage is handled by a separate RAID array, so capacity is not an issue. Rather, I am looking for the fastest, longest-lasting, and most reliable drive under $150 that is suitable to my application. Any thoughts? Thanks!"

Did George Lucas shoot that video? I say that because there were no on location shots and the green screen was pretty tasteless...

hp needs to come out with special paper so I can print out the skin I want for less than $3.00
Oh man, they should TOTALLY include The Hoff, as long as it's a pic of his drunken cheeseburger shenanigans.

You guys wouldn't let Hasselhoff be on the show?
I would definitely get that Paramore one. A print-kit would be nice to make your own.
I like them, but is it right to consider them a "legendery recording artist?" I would have liked to see more skins featuring artists like The Beatles.
I'd definitely buy the Paramore one too!
Something advertised as 'bling' by an electronics company has absolutely no right to look as brilliant as those do.
Why oh why did I watch that? That may have very well decimated future Knight Rider enjoyment for me. :(
The Hoff rocks!

I dont like your music Michael.
Shut the f*ck up KITT.
Ugly Seagate drives need this face lift. Do they have a skin of a better looking drive available?
Nosmo Rex .... You called it. Crap indeed.
Does anyone even buy the stupid dock for these things? Never mind the skins.
Wow. these skins are unbelievably brutal.
fail.
