 ;D (These guys have a great website BTW. Historic even! I'd bet this vintage static page hasn't been changed much since the day they put it up back in the 90s. They're even still using a textured background and cgi. Gotta love it! Show it to your kids to let them see how the web 'used' to look back when it was just starting...)

I find they're handy for reading in the car while I'm waiting to collect my GF from her carpool. (Why are Connecticut's commuter parking lots so poorly lit?)

This light is also pretty useful for when you're crawling around behind a server rack or network patch panel. For some stupid reason, most server rooms tend to adequately light the aisles in front of the equipment, but neglect the back side where everything get's plugged in. Nice to have both hands free, and still be able see what you're plugging and unplugging back there.

I tend not to read in bed. I discovered much better uses for my time when I find myself in one. :P
