No it's not a hello kity vibrator, it's a switchbox that lets me flip between computers using the same monitor, mouse and keyboard. I hit scroll lock twice to go from Windows to Linux or vice versa.
Now I can play around with Samba and Apache and MySQL on the Linux box and develop frontend stuff on Windows. And perhaps more importantly, I can browse the web on the slow machine while ripping CDs on the fast one.

Where have you been? These have been around since about 1942. Maybe not in a cleverly small package like that but all the same.

The cleverly small and might I add inexpensive package is what sold me.
Now I'm afraid it's already started: anyone I show says "Why do you need two computers?" or, more annoyingly, "You don't need two computers".
My uncle will want to take the "extra" one and do something disgusting and ham raidio-ish with it.
