Wonder if you can rig this as a push-to-talk button for Ventrilo…

That would make it worth it

HOWEVER,
I figured out that all the button is doing is sending SHIFT+ALT+P to the computer where their software is listening. Using autohotkey I was able to hook up that key combination to run a python script which fires my USB missile launcher I also purchased during the last wootoff

You are awesome!
Yay kittehs!
Can this work on my PS3 or 360 if either network goes down or hacked?
Reminds me of the Broken I.W.I.N. Button - Item - World of Warcraft.
I think I’ll hold out for the USB missile launcher. It’s gotta be coming up!
Ok, I’ll hack this into a big F5 refresh button for the next woot-off.
From auctionsaver:
Seeing this I decided what Woot needs is a big red “I don’t want” button during wootoffs so that all logged in users can establish a need to move on. Heck you could have that open a multiple choice window where you could select why, such as: too expensive, already own, don’t need/want, etc.
I told myself I’d never be “that guy”, but after reading the write-up, I’m compelled to say… it’s “cubicle”, not “cubical”.
cries over my official conversion to “jerk requiring proper spelling on internet”
Now if it was the Liberace Stress Button I’d be in for three, but Iron Man…
nuh-uh.

I bought the USB stress button from the last wootoff and was severely disappointed with the screen effects.

You win the internet
Don’t see why not. Just set up a macro that is the same as this button and disable the software this thingy uses?
Wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww, I think it would cause more stress than it would relieve…for a variety of reasons.
Can I rewire this and make it a self-destruct button?
That is possibly the best idea I have ever read here on the forums, any chance we can make this happen??
I’m just going to have to resist the impulse. . .
$8 for this crap…
there’s a sucker born every minute.

Could you distinguish between three of these? Might be good for a home quiz game…
