64GB Steampunk-Inspired USB Stick Priced Into the Stratosphere [Steampunk]

[Geek]

If I may, I'd like to borrow a bit from comedian Bill Maher. New Rule: If you're going to ask $1,000 for a steampunk device, it must actually do something worthwhile, preferably related to steam power.

And something in this case cannot be "Kingston USB drive," which is what this is, and $1,000 is exactly what designer Will Rockwell is asking for it.

Note to steampunk aficionados and aspiring designers: When you hobble something together, call it steampunk and charge $1,000, whatever it is you're making better be powered by a steam engine and have the ability to fight battles on my behalf or fly like an airship. [Etsy via Born Rich]
