GEARFUSE —

Apparently this thing can not only be used to lay down the foundation of a building, but also for open source and retro-gaming. It has an 800×480 pixel display, a bunch of retarded buttons and Linux. Sounds good enough for playing old SNES and Genesis emulators, but why not just pick up a Nintendo DS and be done with it all? Just sayin’. pandora_render Link
