Green card Printer Friendly Version
An idea for retail shops to half their carbon foot print would be to get rid of all receipts, this can be done by using a swipe card similar to the club card where the receipts are stored on the card at the checkout. Then through a mobile device connected to a pc you can list all receipts in a word document that can be printed when needed. Also the customer can access there receipt via the shops website using a password.

OS Card Printer Friendly Version
The "OS Card" would be a independant operating system that is installed or flashed onto a PCI-E card for computers.
A entire operating system such as Windows would come on one of these cards. Instead of booting and running your OS from your local hard drive, it would run most of the OS from the PCI-E card.
The card would be read only, protecting vital system files from malware such as trojans or viruses. A small number of system files that would require read and write functions would be copied to your local hard drive where they could be modified and read by the card.
What would this do? For starters it would make installing an operting system much easier. Instead of having to deal with CDs, DVDs and serial numbers a person would simply buy the card and put it in their computer.
I also believe that this would also put a serious dent in piracy of operating systems. Furthermore, it would free up a considerable amount of space on your hard drive. I also feel that it may even speed up system processes.
The OS Card could come with it's own independent CPU and Memory (RAM), which would completely remove the need for an operating system's system requirements. This would most likely speed up all other processes and events being run on the computer now that system processes are now no longer hogging PC resources.

Debt card with age verification Printer Friendly Version
Why not take your debt card; put your picture on it; and when you swipe it to pay for booze it will verify your age.
I can't think of anyone that would give their debt card and pin to anyone, plus it has your photo on it.
