Altec's stylin' Expressionist Plus PC speakers

Altec Lansing is adding to its line of Expressionist PC speakers with the Expressionist Plus, which goes by the model number FX3021 and carries a list price of US$99.95.

The compact, 24-watt, 2.1 system includes a sub with a 5.25-inch driver and two angle-adjustable satellite speakers with 2-inch drivers.

Don Milks, Altec Lansing's Senior Manager of Product Management for PC Audio, says, "The Expressionist Plus subwoofer packs tremendous punch for its tiny size," and he declares this "the best performing US$99 PC speaker on the market."

OK, Don. We look forward to giving the Plus a whirl and reviewing the system soon. For more info in the meantime check out Altec Lansing's Web site.

Diskette flash drive

We've seen some nice flash drives in our time, but this one just made its way to the top of our list of cool USB products. Shaped like a diskette, the USB connector of this flash drive is exposed when you slide open the aluminum cover that protects a 3.5-inch floppy disk's magnetic tape. While not the most practical of designs, it's very clever and gives that touch of nostalgia from the days when playing a simple game required swapping through three or four diskettes. As far as we can tell, this is a concept from a Portuguese designer, so don't expect to see it in stores anytime soon. Click to see another picture of it in use.
