Foot-Powered Laptop

Apparently 5 minutes of brisk pumping will give you 20 minutes of battery life, it can also be used to power most other electrical devices with a rechargable battery."

    The oil exporting countries have been colluding to hide this incredible energy source from the public. In fact, a single dick-powerstation installed on RMS would provide practically unlimited amounts of Free (as in speech) Energy for everyone. The only other component required is an endless horde of open source bigots eager to suck RMS' cock. That won't be a problem, though.
