Trade your mouse for a falcon--a Novint Falcon. The force-feedback device provides haptics and tactility, pushing back against your hand or vibrating in specific patterns to simulate textures.

"The Novint Falcon is a revolutionary interface device that makes interactive 3D touch possible and practical for consumer computing for the first time," says the company. But gamers will probably find the device more useful than spreadsheet jockeys will, at least until Novint installs some kind of electroshock feature triggered by incorrect Excel formulations.

"J2 equals--YEOWWW!"
