You Gotta Love Nintendo's Little Cube!
2 of 2 found this helpful What can I say? I've always liked the cubic form-factor. You can find the cases in various colors, and either go for the playful indigo, or the more serious black.
Light and nimble for its size, the GameCube was the machine of choice for kid-friendly games, particularly the kind Nintendo is known for. It's pretty much the ideal family console.
With the Wii taking their place, you'll find many GameCube consoles available at bargain prices. A minimal but complete console set-up should only cost $30 or less, depending on condition. Beware -- the laser is known to fail on older units. Be sure yours is in working order before buying!
However, because the game discs can still be played on the Wii, the best games have held their value and can range between $15 and $30 per unit in the marketplace. You can't really expect too many bargains among the better titles, although there are plenty of also-ran (but still fun) games with value between $5 and $10.
Happy hunting!

Perfect fit for the Muse S headband
This is a quality product and a perfect fit for the Muse S headband (both Gen 1 and Gen 2)! It seems to have enough room for two headbands, to be honest -- although I don't have two to test with.
At least, there is certainly plenty of space (with room to spare) for one headband plus USB charger, cable, and loose earbuds... and maybe even the earbud case, if it's small enough.
Highly recommended!

Fujitsu LifeBook T4200 Series Laptop
This older Fujitsu laptop series isn't the lightest, doesn't provide cutting-edge graphics, and doesn't have the longest battery life. However, I like many of the extra features which were designed with business users in mind. This is by no means a gaming machine, but it will serve the serious user very well.
This LifeBook is both a laptop AND a Wacom-pen enabled tablet, so that's why it's a little bit heavier than the lightest portables. I think the slight extra weight (this computer is a little over 4 pounds) is a small price to pay for the extra capability. I really love the swivel hinge that allows the screen to be rotated. It's not flimsy and looks built to last. Also, this machine has a modular bay for an extra battery (inserted where an optical CD/DVD drive might go), so battery life can easily be doubled to six hours or more (although these extra modular batteries are hard to find and run around $50 each on eBay).
Many of these laptops were originally issued Windows XP or Windows Vista, but they can be equipped with SSD hard drives and up to 8 GB of RAM, and then they perform very well with Windows 7, 8, or 10. (You can of course also install your favorite flavor of Linux, if you prefer.)
The coolest feature for me is the biometric sensor which allows me to log in to my screen-locked laptop with the swipe of a finger. This is easy to set up under Win10's "Windows Hello" settings option, and it's not a feature that is seen on today's typical low-cost laptops.
Given that you can usually find these machines on eBay in good condition for well under $100, I'd say they're a bargain at that price -- especially if you need the flexibility of a tablet for writing with a Wacom stylus.
Around 2007 or 2008, these machines would have cost around two thousand dollars each! Almost ten years on, they still perform well for routine business computing tasks and have a lot of useful life left in them.
