I wish it would work great in GIMP, there always seems to be a loss of quality in what I do from the transition from my brain to my hand.

I have seen something similar years ago that was being developed on a research facility, but the device had to be implanted on the top of the head surgically. Obviously it wasn't intended for gamers, but for persons with serious motor disabilities.

Anyway, that thing is really cool.

No not really the new-egg is more primitive. With this one you can actually have it respond to actual thoughts (after training it to do so of course) the newegg it reads muscle movement only essentially.

I've emailed the company just waiting for a reply...So in the mean time party at lovinglinux's house!

I want one. It would totally eliminate fingerprints from touch screens. Not to mention my mouse would be no more.

Wonder if it can function better with a higher IQ?

I can control my computer with my mind...

I think don't touch the power switch and it does not come on.

I can control mine through my mind too. Whenever it crashes, I think about kicking the living daylights out of it and my foot mysteriously kicks the damn thing.
