Yet another way get your fellow co-workers. This time, the USB Powered Missile Launcher will hit the target.
Better than the ordinary paper airplane, this USB Powered Missile Launcher just takes a move of the mouse to aim the darts and a click to fire them. The British Retailer Marks & Spencer sells this nifty little gadget on their website for about $34 US Dollars. Be sure to read more about this little toy on CNet and put it on your Christmas List!

I think Aussies have a new supplier for their gadgets. This shop called Gagdet Empire rocks all the way from the UK. I just bought the USB missile launcher, the guys there gave me the driver for MAC. It works even better than the drivers that came with it.

That’s a riot! I guess you can turn anything into a usb device these days. Good thing we didn’t have usb during the cold war, someone may have made a usb thermonuclear bomb!

All of these kind of gadgets always start of high priced like this. Well, $30 isn’t really all that bad for this kind of gadget, but rest assured duplicates will be out soon, hopefully the quality is good and that’s when I’ll be out to try em out.

What is this missile gadget? I have no idea what you are talking about. I know of USB drives, but missile launchers, sounds rather dangerous.

Actually bought 4 of these two years ago and put them in loft for xmas pressies etc. Then forgot about them…. Redicovered them a few days ago and looking to “wabaam” the dog and kids BUT unfortunately I own a tablet laptop and have no DVD drive or DVD to attach. Therefore cannot shoot anything yet as I need a driver to get it to work.
Can anyone point me in the right direction of a the driver for this ?? Plus I aint that PC literate so easy way would really help
Thanks
