[ILUG] cool cracking gadget

[Justin MacCarthy]

I remember hearing that the feds used something like that. 
They kept arresting some mafia accountant, but all the files
on his pc were encrypted.
So they decided to break into his house and install a keystroke
grabber in his keyboard to grab his passwords. 

Very smart, pity they had no warrant.
