A few days back while cleaning up an old cupboard I found a 3.5" floppy drive disk holder containing 15 of these obsolete drive cartridges. Each of them could hold a staggering 2MB of memory, so 15 of them could do a mind numbing 30MB of total storage space. Now that is pittance compared to the 2/4/8 GB USB drive you can pick up at any electronic store today. The iBlock Memory Stick is a USB pen drive that is designed in the form of our childhood pastime toys, Lego building blocks that attach to one another. It comes with 2GB of storage space to keep all those important documents and personal files with you all the time. Although it certainly won't make a good impression if your client sees you sporting a Lego block dangling plugged in your laptop while you ask for a financial bailout to a panel of bewildered financers.

If you fancy going for the iBlock Memory Stick bucket pack to build your own tower, these Lego USB memory sticks cost $24 a piece. It's better if you keep that cash saved up for a rainy day.
