Any opinions on the Saitek headset? Looks nice but do they, you know, work well?

@Kaiser-Machead: Isn't that the naked part of Ocean Beach? What has been seen cannot be unseen...

It's kinda worth noting that Jobs is pretty particular with his.. screws. That didn't come out right. Anyway, apparently on some MacBook model there was a screw inserted only for aesthetic purposes to promote symmetry rather than actually, you know, do something. I bet he likes the way these look.

I bought a lot of cases for my 3GS from sites like dealextreme.com and they were all cheap in terms of price and quality. Finally I got a InCase and, while expensive, it was much better. If this Apple case is of similar quality, the price is fair and on par with the good 3GS cases.

@ispara: To be fair, the 1st gen Intel MacBooks were amazingly good, considering the enormity of the change. I'd be more concerned with any other companies' 1st gen stuff. I mean seriously, name one other company that entered a market with a product as polished as the iPhone.

@vf34wrx: Are you saying you didn't see that coming? I think the only surprise is that it wasn't on the 1st gen iPad.

@kapanak: As someone who took a couple journalism classes, there are a number of formalisms in the field that the Giz, god love it, does not follow. I think this site is fun but I think there is a very strong argument behind saying it is not journalism proper.

I mean, Microsoft simply won't be selling Nadal without a game to play. That $150 could be the price of a $60 game and a $90 camera. Or it is just pure speculation.

This is what is awesome about the real astronauts and high-level pilots, not only do they have balls of steel (in this case titanium) but they know their shit; they are nerds. I've also found that they tell a pretty classy story as well. Bravo.

I read the paper. Oxygenated alcoholic drinks will cause you to sober up faster. They thought that, maybe, this could lead to fewer hangovers but there is no data to support that. Kinda bogus. Who wants to be sober sooner?

@mykalt45: As written below, there was a change in legal precedent that made it legal to use anonymous tissue without consent. HeLa was derived before the precedent and obviously there is no anonymity so this is solidly in illegal territory.

@Mr.Affrox: If you mean the legality of using someone's cells without their consent or anonymity, yes there is a big legal issue there. Been settled with the family I think.

@Craig Laprade: Haha, this this is f*cking awesome and all you can do is complain about the tech being old? You are truly jaded internet commenter of the year. Enjoy your life of never being impressed with anything ever.
