Sometimes, clicking a mouse to initiate an important action seems underwhelming.  The lowly mouse with it's anemic button, while necessary to perform almost all significant actions in a windowed UI, doesn't really convey a sense of urgency or gravity.  Sometimes when performing a special task, you may desire an alternative method, one that has requires special ceremony and imparts a sense of import.  Something with an aura of danger!

Something like the ZariganiWorks Self-Destruct Button USB Hub!

DIY guru Phil Tucker recently got one of the units and modded it with bits of a busted mouse so that, when armed, it acts like a USB mouse's left button.  Position the arrow over the desired window element, turn the device's ignition key, activate two failsafe switches and open the case and you're ready to launch.  We reserve this special device for only the most serious of circumstances, such as updating our production website when many changes are pending, like when a major site/software revision is happening.

Arming the beast!

Website sync in progess. We use xxcopy for this. Great utility!

 

One happy sysadmin!
