    i saw this awhile ago and the same thing with a USB wireless card, using the dead cable as an antenna

    What happens when someone finds a random bit of broken cable and throws it out? This only works if you keep it on you and then why not just use the drive as it is?

    its really chill

  12. suganya on July 23rd, 2008 5:45 pm

    its really good idea..chill

    so this seems like a lot of work for little to no benefit, especially if you cut the cable (kinda destroys the illusion of it.. you know… being a cable)

  14. KwikBreaks on July 24th, 2008 4:43 pm

    One question though… Why?

  15. Projector Rentals on July 24th, 2008 6:34 pm

    Nice post… I like it like Projector Rentals

  16. Jeff on July 25th, 2008 4:47 am

    K sorry this might seem random but….why would you want to do that? Just to have the crazy cut off cable look, or would it be cheaper than buying a flash drive?

  17. Soapy on July 25th, 2008 6:42 pm

    This is not cool, it’s dirty old man pants! why would you want to do this to a perfectly good flashdrive? it makes no sense, no sense at all!!

  18. mellerdk on July 26th, 2008 2:38 pm
