Remember the trusty old VHS tape? You know, the thing we used to watch movies on. You had to rewind and fast forward it, the quality kind of sucked, and sometimes the tape would get eaten by the machine, ruining it? Yes, we used to be forced to watch all our movies on them before beautiful DVDs came along. Good times.

If you still have a soft spot for VHS tapes, but not a soft enough spot to still watch them, you might like this sweet glowing VHS tape USB hub. It's functional in a 21st century kind of way, giving your computer an extra set of USB hubs. But it's built out of a VHS tape, so you can fondly remember taping movies off HBO for your personal collection. It's a DIY affair, but if you've got the time and the skills it could be a fun project.
