[From the DV Hardware link]

The black colored Steelpad comes from Denmark and is made out of a 3.5mm aluminium plate.

So the Steelpad is made of aluminum; that makes sense.

It's also hardended [sic] to ensure the durability under all conditions

That's good, too: I know my mousepads always ended up twisted and mangled from daily use...

Too much time...

Another example of too much time.

"Toilet PC"
"In my new quest to find odd objects to turn into computers, my fiancee Julie and I were at the grocery store one day when I thought of this idea. At the grocery store there was a child's training toilette sitting in a shopping cart"

damn at lease i use my free time to get free tshirts

I've been doing it all wrong...

DV Hardware a little article about an aluminium mousepad, called the Steelpad

Wow, and to think all this time I've been using nice, soft gel. Time to throw that out and get me a nice block of steel...that'll do wonders for the 'ol carpal tunnel...
