Really Pretty iPod Stickers

I never leave my house. If I did become someone who ever leaves the house, I would totally get an iPod. I keep my music going as if it were my pacemaker. I also am all about some customization. That's why if I ever left the house and got an iPod I'd most definitely pick up some of these Shufflesome stickers for it.

Forget bulky rubber, silicone or rubber protective sleeves and cases - they're ugly, and who needs that? Besides, how much protection do you really need for your Shuffle? These cast vinyl stickers should protect your musical friend from scratching just fine, I imagine. And Dear Lord are they lovely. They should start making these for cellphones.

Shufflesome stickers for iPods

Tech History Made on January 24, 1984

On this day in 1984 the first Mac was introduced to the world. Newsweek awed readers with the drawing shown below which depicted the inner workings of the Macintosh 128K. For $2500 you got 128 KB of RAM, a 3.5" floppy drive, 2 serial ports, a 9-inch black and white monitor, and the Mac OS 1.0. The Macintosh was the first to have tools for desktop publishing and in 3 months 50,000 were sold. This is not as many units as the iPod but was enough to push Apple into the big-time.
