OCZ's Brain Mouse Hits the Store 150
John Roller writes "Three months to the day since Slashdot originally received word that OCZ's "brain-mouse" — the Neural Impulse Actuator was ready for shipping, the first in-depth review of the device containing pictures of the retail packaging along with several videos have arrived on the internet.
Overclock3D.Net got the first look at the device, and although it's still early days, they managed to play a game of "Pong" using only brain power.
The article is only part one in a month-long log of using the device, but it's extremely interesting to see what the people who have pre-ordered the device can expect from it when it arrives on their doorsteps shortly."

One is a genius, the other's insane;
Two laboratory mice, their genes have been spliced;
Before each night is done their plan will be unfurled;
By the dawning of the sun they'll take over the world;
Their twilight campaign is easy to explain;
To prove their mousy worth, they'll take over the earth;
They're Pinky, They're Pinky and the Brain Brain Brain Brain Brain Brain Brain Brain Narf.

Well, it looked like it was behaving, but no sooner had I left my seat that it had leaped in
Some hardware you just can't trust.

Well the fundamental problem is that those consequences are in the future, and the future is by its very nature hypothetical, and any future consequences are also thus hypothetical, and thus also possibly non-existent. It's a hedge of the immediate known reward vs a future potential but perhaps not guaranteed cost.
Besides, sometimes the gamble pays off. After all, here I am over a decade into adulthood, and I have yet to sprout so much as a single hair follicle on my palm. So in at least that case, my psyche's "if it feels good, do it again and again" impulse didn't steer me wrong!
