Meninos Offers USB Drives with Character

Evidently, there is a market for computer stuff that doesn't look like computer stuff. Just consider the Mimobot line of flash drives that look like Star Wars characters rather than the simple flash drives they really are. If you like the idea of the Mimobot and have wished you could get a real hard drive with hundreds of gigabytes of storage that doesn’t look like the average external hard drive - Meninos can hook you up.

Meninos has a line of external hard drives that are inside your typical square-ish USB connected enclosure. If you order the enclosure with a drive in it, you can get 250GB, 320GB, 400GB, and 500GB versions. You can also simply order the enclosure and choose the vinyl stickers that change the drive into a piece of art (supposedly). Some of the cool designs include Pulp, which looks like Samuel L. Jackson's character in Pulp Fiction, and you can get cereal box designs too. The price for the enclosure alone is $250. Prices for the enclosure and hard drive range from $400 for 250GB to $620 for 500GB.
