Can Your Hard Disk Drive Do This?

Yes, we have managed to combine a Hard Disk Drive and a high-efficiency DC Generator into a single unit. It's the ultimate HDD and power source for your laptop computer. Less than five minutes' cranking will power your laptop for over half an hour! Plus, it's totally Earth-friendly -- no messy NiCd or NiMH batteries to dispose of down the road, and it keeps depleted uranium out of the environment as well.

Sound too good to be true? It certainly is. This is only a hoax, but wouldn't it be a great product?
