    Can I install this on my Carputer?

    www.thehackstop.com ... i just saw the infomercial for this.....i was waiting for the geico gecko to popup. They even used the term "harddrive scam". I have to beg the question.....what about wireless?

    I guess its the same as the "standby" button on newer cable modems.

    absolutely nothing. I think a better alternative would be....hook up your cable modem or router to an outlet controlled by a light swtich.

    Oh my god. that is @#$%ing brilliant! Its ideas like this that make me want to smack my forehead with large blunt objects... A completely useless "device" that does nothing special, marketed to the right demographic. Someone is sleeping very well tonight.

    Here's a task that's even less demanding than turning a light switch off, with the same end-result:
    Move the cursor over to the Task Bar, right-click on your Internet Connection icon, choose Disable.
    There's much less muscles involved in that situation.
