Description:
Cubicle warfare just got an upgrade The arms race is on. The workplace has become a dangerous place, but once upon a time, it was all a laugh. Back in the day, your workmates chased each other with squirt-guns, then disc-guns. Everybody laughed when somebody brought in the harmless Airzooka. Gleefully, somebody brought in a marshmallow blaster. Then it went kinda nuts. Sonic Grenades, catapults, lightsabers, ninjas... Suddenly, it was less about harmless fun. Suddenly, things got serious. Deadly serious. The day that the guy down the hall brought in the USB Missile Launcher was the day the gauntlet was thrown down. Today is the day it gets picked up, and slapped across the face of your office enemy. ThinkGeek's new USB Rocket Launcher has more than twice the range of his missile launcher - yeah, I said twice the range. Now you can be the one your cube-neighbors fear, and fear leads to respect... or does fear lead to anger? I forget.

I've got this little baby sitting on the shelf in my office cubicle right now. It really does have quite a reach, though if you've got a low ceiling in the office this might not be the best choice as it has a pretty big arch necessary to get the longer distance shots.
One thing that I don't like is that you can't see where you're aiming at from your desk. I've been thinking of finding a very lightweight videocam to sit either on it or next to it so I can see where I'm aiming without looking away from my screen where the launch controls are.
