For just $450, you could pick up the SEGA TeraDrive on eBay, which “was hopeful that by integrating its then popular Mega Drive console into an IBM PC would be an attraction for potential customers wishing to purchase a PC.” Auction page. Click here for first picture in gallery.
The TeraDrive allowed for Mega Drive games to be played the same time as the PC section is being used, as it is possible for the Mega Drive and PC hardware to interact with each other. Its interface consisted of a start-up menu with several options, including a file manager, DOS, a clock and Mega Drive mode.

This transformable Nokia / BMW phone “comes with an interesting ‘push to open’ mechanism that makes its display rotate 90 degrees turning the whole device into a handycam.” Click here for one more picture.
If it has to be the BMW of cellphones, it has to be hi-tech, stylish and of course, expensive. And we believe it is going to be all that and more. The cam also features a great GPS navigation tool and a really sleek design.

Spore for the PC/Mac “allows the player to develop a species from a microscopic organism to its evolution into a complex animal, its emergence as a social, intelligent being, to its mastery of the planet and then finally to its ascension into space, where it interacts with alien species across the galaxy.” Continue reading for the Spore review.
