IBM, RCA, Lego, Microsoft, and Motorola - All of these I prefer to their contemporary counterparts.

What damage exactly? Pushing out companies who have smaller selection and higher prices?

It is next to impossible to find a "regular" bowl that costs anywhere near $60. They elegantly fixed this "low cost" issue, while also making it several hundred times more likely to break.

The processor you listed is...both a Pentium 4 and a Celeron D? How's that?

I don't have anything to hide from the Feds in an airport, so all this means to me is that the TSA lines will move a LOT faster, I can keep my shoes and belt on, and the risk of hijacking will be even lower.

A series of adventure novels would have taught me about a contemporary group of lunatics who believe the Earth and Sun are hollow?

I have a 9x16 secondary monitor on my desk. It's amazing.

Damn straight.

I hadn't ever heard this particular brand of lunacy.

Congratulations are in order for Microsoft; they have just built the first tablet I have ever wanted to own. If the price is not absolutely ridiculous (a big if!), I can see a Surface Pro replacing my netbook.

Of course transporting goods to other star systems wouldn't be cost effective, but you seem to forget how sentimental humans tend to be.

Whoops.

I believe the real problem is sending the signal back to us once the exploration is underway. Using heat and gravity to melt a probe down through ice is one thing, getting it close enough to the surface to send us all that juicy data is something else entirely.

Would you rather they posted the picture of dead animals after you finished chewing on pieces of dead animals during lunch?

I have no doubts that it was very difficult for her to do this, and I applaud and respect her for doing so for a number of reasons; one of which being the publicity she has brought to an emerging product that will no doubt fuel it's sales and development. Being able to point skeptics to a story of a woman using this…

I have still only seen the Dyson Airblade in one place, Castelnaudary, France. It blows me away (har) that something that great hasn't caught on back here yet; it works beautifully.

Why would they make a Facebook app? Draw Something is a mobile version of the OMGPOP game "Draw My Thing".

If you truly believe humanity has done NOTHING in space for the past 40 years, then you really have no business discussing the topic.
