pure awesome would be if the gauge worked, and told you how full the thing was.

It would also be very cool if the prop on the end spun while it was plugged in. And, hell yeah I want one!

I've been puzzling over that second, smaller dial too, mrfix.

As Drew wisely suggested, the upper gauge obviously needs to be "memory used, or available", or whatever, but that lower one...?

Maybe it should be a compass - forever pointing towards Microsoft Headquarters? Or the birthplace of Eli Whitney? Babbage? Turing? The planet Mars? The nearest warm body?

How about simply the data transfer rate? That's kinda lame though...
