>>Actually, a wind-up device to deliver power for electrical devices actually exists. In fact, a couple of months ago I read it was rumored that Apple was considering using one (for about a second) in their new consumer portable computer for the education market. It was to be a miniaturized wind-up power unit made by Citizen.

There is currently a radio that uses this wind-up power unit (for remote areas with no power). Here is a link to it:<<

Uh huh. So now you're saying that it's a perfectly reasonable idea?

Then why were you laughing out loud about it earlier today?

Oh yeah, that's right. It was a stupid idea when you thought Iomega was doing it.

Maybe you could upgrade to the latest version of Detractomatic (TM). Maybe then you would make at least some sense.
