    Not that this isn't pretty freekin cool, but nowadays to have an on-board linux machine isn't too tough.

    Throw a Gumstix Overo or Sheevaplug in your saddlebag and you motorcycle can have a linux server too ;) #mavizenttx02

    Consumer: "Can I have it with Windows?"

    Reseller: "No, It's a bike"

    (Think about it)

    ...

    Consumer: "Hi, I have a problem with my computer. It doesn't seem to work anymore."

    IT Help Desk: "Let's see if I can help... When did the problem first arise?"

    Consumer: "First came up when I lost control and rode off the side of a cliff."

    IT Help Desk: "Umm..."

    Brilliant! For our next trick, a skydiving toaster.

    @Nitesh Singh: Kernal panics sound so much crazier than the whole BSOD. I mean, it almost makes me want to use linux just to experience one. I can just imagine a computer running down the street screaming as zombies and military personnel clash in combat.

    You make 1 crash, and thats just like you threw your laptop out the window (or into the back of a car at low-high speed).

    And that thing better have a Solid state HD in there for when you do things like go over speed bumps and bumpy roads. #mavizenttx02

    Do they also protect your thumbs from hyperextension? If so, I sure wish I had had a pair of these 3 years ago. It's mostly healed now, thankfully.

    Upon further reading maybe it was my scaphoid.

    My fiance would have lost her foot had it not been for some Sidi boots. Leather body armor kept the dirt out of the wounds, preventing infection. She's fine now, thanks to armor. These gloves look like a great idea.
