Magnetacks
The 411: Want to display precious photos or other memorabilia without leaving tell-tale tape residue or pinholes?
The Breakdown: This ultra-strong magnet can hold more than 10 sheets of paper at a time. They come in regular and XL, and in five different colors. We recommend the colored tops, which are easier to grip.
Belkin Laptop Cooling Stand
The 411: Ever overheat your laptop watching movies in bed? It really fries your computer, but now it’s preventable.
The Breakdown: Plug the stand into your USB port to start cooling down. The fan is a little noisy, but it quickly blends into the background.
Flying Alarm Clock
The 411: The last time you hit snooze, you slept through your class. Save your grades with this alarm clock that literally flies.
The Breakdown: This alarm propels itself out of the clock, forcing you out of bed to get the key and turn it off. The key doesn’t fly very far, but it gives you a reason to get out of bed after a late night.
