"We were all on vacation at ze time!!"

Shhhhh!!! Don't spoil the surprise.

I concur via this observation: None of my friends (with or without families) go to the movies on a whim anymore due to the cost. There is no "lets go see if this is good or not" discussions. The only movies that we go to or take the kids to are the big titles or kid specific movies. I don't even sneak out of work…

Kickstarter anyone?

In the article it's spelled 'phone'.

I picked up a 32Gb USB 3.0 drive a few months back prior to having a system with USB 3.0. Even on older 2.0 systems the drive is very fast.
