I’m not entirely sure why Space Invaders has become the poster-child for retro gaming, but I’m sure part of the credit has to go to the game’s simple pixel graphics which are easy to recreate on everything from ties, to ice cube trays, to even cutting boards now.

Hand-made in the USA from cubes of walnut and hard-maple, these Space Invaders themed cutting boards measure 15-inches by 10-inches and are the perfect tool for cutting down those hordes of invading green peppers. But because they’re hand-made, they’re only available in limited quantities. In fact it looks like ThinkGeek is currently sold out until the end of the week, but if and when they’re back in stock you’ll be able to order one for $129.99.

Stylish Classic Gaming Ties

Game Ties (Images courtesy Technabob)
By Andrew Liszewski

I truly feel bad for anyone who has to wear a tie to work (or pants, a shirt, and pretty much anything except pajamas) but they at least provide a wearable canvas allowing you to express yourself to co-workers and the powers that be. For example, any gamers who’ve found themselves stuck in a crappy 9 to 5 can now show their love for 4 different classic titles including Asteroids, Tetris, Space Invaders and Pong. Each ‘Game Tie’ is made from microfiber, no fancy schmancy silk here, and they’re all available from Amazon for just $24.95 each.

Molecular projector scatters the world’s smallest letters


1.5 nanometers: that’s how small these letters are — half a nanometer shorter than those inscribed by inferior brains back in October. Physicists at Stanford achieved the record (which ties Hitachi’s work from 1991) by manipulating individual carbon monoxide molecules on a copper surface and then exciting the copper to bounce a holographic pattern off the CO. Software ensures that the molecules are positioned correctly to scatter electron waves into particular shapes, in this case an “S” and “U,” before finishing with a “CK IT CAL,” presumably. The work could ultimately lead to densely packed storage devices… or not. Just saying.

Dell could launch its own smartphone soon

Following the announcement of Palm’s power-packed Pre smartphone at CES, rumors about Dell’s impending launch of its own smartphone were sparked. This comes mostly from the fact that it’s been about two years since Dell hired the Motorola exec known as the force behind the RAZR phone, Ron Garriques.

Analysts pin either the 3GSM or the Mobile World Congress event in Barcelona as the place where Dell would most likely announce its smartphone plans. The smartphone market is getting crowded really fast, and Dell’s entry will most certainly not be a walk in the park.

As for Dell’s smartphone OS pick, it would likely be Windows Mobile, because of the huge ties it’s got with Microsoft in the PC business. The open-source Android OS would also be a good choice, but hints say that is highly unlikely.

And while that OS is one very important thing, the device’s design will also be crucial to its success. The iPhone is very popular, as it is functional as it is sexy. So is the recently launched Palm Pre. Dell will have to think about making those two products look badly designed compared to its own smartphone to get any attention these days, at the very least.
