$350? Still expensive. And seriously, what do I need that for if I can get a KVM for $30 at Fry’s Electronics?

“Sanatize your data?” I think I’ll just scratch up my CDs with a knife!

An IP-KVM adds the ability to access your system from anywhere in the world, as long as both points have access to the Internet.

Not as cool as the laser, but ok… I guess you need to have all kinds of gadgets, not just the “useless but damn cool” kind.

Not buying a CD-Destroyer: Saving $30
Not paying shipping for sanitizing data: Save $5

Putting out your eye with a high-speed plastic fragment from a snapping CD: Priceless!

You should spin off the network stuff to another show. Leave ‘gadget’ for the geeks like me: The guys who like gadgets, but don’t really have a need for this high end networking equipment.

BTW, I love GeekWear and Byte. It’s a nice way to show off stuff I could actually buy!

Funny you should say that. We’re currently in the process of creating a new show, ‘network’
which will deal specifically with network gear.

Binary is Base2 That means that you add together the bits that a marked as “1″

In other words, say that you have a Byte (8 bits) — The individual positions are worth (128, 64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1) — if the binary value is 11111111, then the value is 256 (128+64+32+16+8+4+2+1) — if the binary value is 00000010, then the value is 2 (0+0+0+0+0+0+2+0)

So, the shirt really reads “There are only two types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don’t.”
