USB Christmas Tree is a Shoddy Replacement for Workaholics

Now that Halloween has come and gone in the blink of an eye, it's time to start thinking about Christmas. What! Already?! Fall is going by FAR too quickly for my liking. I haven't had nearly enough time to actually get out and enjoy it.

So for those of you who are chained to your laptops like me, you'll appreciate this easy way not to miss the holiday spirit. It's a USB Christmas tree!

Granted you celebrate Christmas, you'll enjoy this lit-up miniature version of a Christmas tree, without ever having to miss a single e-mail, instant message, or blog post. I'll tell you what this is. It's a sick replacement for what was once a delightful icon of my favorite holiday. But now I'm all growns up, and this girls got work to do. Ahh, spreadsheets and holiday nostalgia. What more could you want??

It's only about $20, (or £9.95) available on UK site Gizoo.com .

rolando:

i hear you about the unpaid overtime,

J:

I myself agree with christmas too early. Before my family always waited til the end of december. But there are reasons for doing it slightly early when not all of your family is going to make it. Think twice before burning a house down in VA.

J:

Mike:

No Fair, I want a USB Menorah! It could read the clock/calendar and light the appropriate lights for each day just after sunset. I can just hear the cheezy electronic tune of "Dreidle Dreidle Dreidle..."

Allen:

Why the hell are you people wasting time with USB trees and snowmen? Not only does it take up USB ports for useful devices but it takes more electricity than just plugging the damn thing into the walll....
