I love cool little gadgets, and this one seems to do everything you’d want a boss button to do. Foot-controlled, it purports to be completely user-selectable as to what to erase (not just minimize) and what to bring to the front to make it look like you’re not playing games at work.

As a big Star Wars geek and somewhat Star Trek geek, I found this video pretty amusing, and well-done too.
It’s official: Duke Nuke ‘em For Never Kinda figured this announcement was coming…about 7 or 8 years ago. When you look in the dictionary under “vaporware”, this is what you see.
