Nothing conjures up images of smoking jackets, pipe aroma, and silicone implants quite like Playboy--which, like every other print magazine, is struggling to stay relevant in the Internet era. Well, Hef and Co. have come up with a revenue booster just in time for the stocking-stuffer season: 56 years of Playboy on a 250GB hard drive.

The "collector's edition" costs $300 and includes every print issue from December 1953 through December 2009. "That's 56 incredible years of Playboy--over 650 issues, more than 100,000 pages--all at your fingertips," reads the publisher's promo copy.

Yes, there's a "fingertips" joke in there somewhere. Feel free to share in the Comments section.

The Playboy drive comes with Bondi Digital Publishing's magazine-browsing software, which is also used by magazine's online archive of back issues.

The pocket-sized USB drive is compatible with both Mac and Windows PCs. Oh, yeah, it's hot-swappable too.

This and the Playboy mansion are on sale...

Playboy fallin' on hard times. Nowadays, porn on the internet makes Playboy look tasteful and classy Cheaper too...

Yeah, but I like the pictures in 50s, 60s and 70s Playboys. Not sure I like them $300, though.

This is gonna sound like a joke, but I'd buy it for the articles.

And maybe a few of the celebrity boobies.

I do... every month.

And did some fun research for a history paper during undergrad with the back issues... would have been so much more convenient to have it on USB than the old microfilm reels at the college library.

Not nearly enough to make me release my hard disk.

I want to see the Nichelle Nichols and Laine Kazan pics.

i must b tired because 'hard disk' looked like 'hard diks'

56 years is plenty of time to go from full-figured Marilyn Monroe to naturally big sista booty having Kim Kardashian. That's a lot of Playboy bunnies among the different generations. But it's a shame that some plastic (Pamela Anderson) fell between the generation gaps.

Just saying.

Pam was so natural when she first posed in Playboy. She doesn't even look like the person she bacame a few years later.

The very last time Pamela looked "natural" was when she did that sex tape with her then-boyfriend Bert Michaels (yes, she had one years BEFORE Tommy Lee!).

But all of that was after her first appearances in Playboy. She looked like a midwest girl next door when she first posed for the magazine.
