I give you – the i.Saw! The world’s first USB-powered chainsaw.
Oh yes. A real, fully functional, USB-powered chainsaw. Be sure to watch the demonstration video. I think the most disturbing portion is probably this section of the website:
Operating Environment
Home and office use
(Standard precautions apply)
How is this a good product? What exactly are you cutting that is within a USB cable’s length of a computer?!
UPDATE — As it turns out the i.Saw is of course not real. It’s a prank, a hoax, but a clever one with a purpose. If you pre-order the i.Saw you’ll receive this e-mail:
Hello.
We love that you liked the i.Saw enough to pre-order.
Truth is, you already own a chainsaw. Your keyboard.
