I really think they chose the wrong symbol for Thunderbolt. It looks too much like the high voltage warning sign.

Hudson Hawk playing Hudson Hawk... absolutely horrible...

So they have to redo all the special effects?

I think the HD in HD Radio originally stood for Hybrid Digital.

The article kinda read like promotional material to me. So I'm curious as to it's independence as well.

How independent is this source? I kinda reads like promotional material.

That's interesting. I've never had an extra cork come with the bottle. I've been happy with the synthetic ones since they work reliably and you still have the ritual of opening a bottle of wine. A screw top just isn't the same.

I don't think the 3D wouldn't work if you're lying on your side anyhow. You're looking at an image that supposed to be variably displaced left and right. Your head has to be relatively level for the brain to get an image that makes sense. (The eyes do counter-rotate in their sockets, but no more than say 30…

It is half the resolution per eye, but the brain combines the two so you perceive a full resolution image. Of course what you perceive is all that really matters. Otherwise people should be complaining that the display only shows 3 colors.

You can read text that's 6 pixel's tall but only displays every other pixel (3)??

I keep hearing ads for natural cork on NPR. My guess is that the cork industry is lobbying not to get phased out. I'm perfectly satisfied with synthetic "cork" in my wine bottles which I understand help save those bottles which are lost due to failing natural cork.

They should put accelerometers and a compass in it so games could use your head orientation info.

Don't let them talk to each other!!!

For the love of god!!! Don't let them talk to each other!!!

My favorite part from the 1985 (not 1987) Playboy interview was this analogy he makes: telephone was to the telegraph as the Macintosh was to the IBM PC (in 1984).

That Playboy interview was published early 1985 (while he was still at Apple), not 1987.

Seems to me something like this would need some integrated optics. I can't focus on anything closer than 4 inches in front of my face.

That could only happen from a massive nuclear explosion.

Oh yeah... I saw that one a while back. Had a rather cheap TV movie feel to it compared to the other Crichton outings.
