MessedRocker writes "I have at least a few USB flash drives around that I haven't needed since I got my 16GB flash drive, a 40GB external hard drive which I haven't needed since I upgraded to 500GB, and a couple of SATA hard drives I have pulled out of laptops which are either as large or smaller than the one I have in my laptop now.

Submission + - Free 3D tool even I can use

The new blender also has a lot of other improvements and lots of nice videos showing the new features.
