At long last, the Obama USB drive

Well, it’s about time… my Abraham Lincoln USB drive was wearing out — but I’m being redundant:

This 2GB USB Drive commemorates President Obama’s rise to the White House with an Obama hologram on the face of the pivot-style drive. The drive comes preloaded with nearly an hour of Obama’s landmark speeches in MP3 format including his Inaugural Address. This drive is tiny enough to easily fit on a keychain.

Actually, you should go to the Amazon product page and read the reviews. They're hilarious!

1.0 out of 5 stars Crashed my system! Lost my hope, but my system changed..., April 30, 2009

By D. Fantasia - See all my reviews

I purchased the Obama drive with hope and change in mind. I did not want just the usual thumb drive, I wanted something new (even if it did not have much experience or brand name to back it up), something that I could say that I was the first to purchase a flash drive of this caliber and of this style. The day that it arrived in the mail I was eager to open it and see what kind of difference it would make in my computing life. The glossy black finish and the shinny chrome trim made the drive one of the more charismatic items I had ever seen on Amazon. For the first few days, it seemed that things were looking up. The speed was good, the preloaded speeches were excellent, but as the 100 day mark approached, the Obama drive dwindled away. The hope of improvement was gone, the change... well the change was there, but not in the way I had expected. It seemed that the preloaded speeches were contradicting the current speeches and the ones given as a candidate. I wasn’t sure if it was a computer glitch or if the Obama drive was malfunctioning. At this point, my hope still lost, more change was on its way. My system crashed! It crashed worse than any other computer crash since the 1950’s! Now that’s change!

I would not recommend this to a friend.

Update: Upon further examination, I have come to the conclusion that it is not made in the United States of America, although I am unsure as to its origin.

Those reviews are hilarious!

I loved this one:

The speeches kept making my computer go into "Sleep Mode." It tends to freak out a little whenever my tea gets too close to it, but when I get rid of the tea bag, it goes back to normal.

The two GB of memory is only good for a little while... as it fills up, it forgets the past. The error on the screen I get is: "The problem you are experiencing is due to the poor performance of your last thumb drive."

However, whenever I win my game of Solitaire I get an error saying "Congratulations! Look what we've accomplished together."

Hey, it's pretty though. It just doesn't hold much value with me.
