Tronical

For anyone that plays guitar, this is a bit of tech that could change things (for the better) when it comes to tuning.

Tronical is a device that can uatomatically tune your guitar for you. You just flip a nob, swipe the strings and it will tune you to whatever you set it to tune (well not exacly just that, but it sounds like it's pretty damn sweet all the same).

Kororaa

If anyone is interested in testing out Linux and wants some great eye candy to go along with it, Kororaa is the answer. This is without a doubt the nicest OS I have ever used (yes, I'm considering Windows XP, Vista, Mac OS X etc.)

If you want to take the time to download and run this puppy, I highly recomend reading (and trying) all the key comboes in the Key Shortcuts file on the desktop.

Holding ctrl + alt and using then cliking and dragging will move your desktops (keep in mind you can have 4 desktops in Linux) like its a cube. (It can be seen in this screenshot.)

The Kororaa mainpage is here.
Some screenshots can be viewed here.
The torrent file can be downloaded here.
