I love this animated look at what a 90s version of a Star Trek prequel would look like. Funny stuff.

Zombie Computers Everywhere
Kindle DX rolls out. Craigslist under attack by South Carolina. Win 7 XP Mode will not run on some processors. The SSD supposedly runs better on Win7. Dell stock down, but ideas improve with a Google Android Netbook. Seagate has another glitch. Pre FAQ leaked to the net via some employee blog. Virgin to do 200 Mbps broadband connection for some users. Video conferences are gaining momentum. UK government increasing intellectual property fines 10X. More zombie computers than ever.

Will Apple buy Twitter? Why?
Kindle in the news again. The Microsoft Windows 7 blitz begins. Many problems being discussed only on the back pages. Tojan shipped with some copies of Win 7. Microsoft to layoff 5000 more workers. Amazon to announce new Kindle DX tomorrow. Textbooks on the kindle? Will Apple buy Twitter? Why would they want to? How about textbooks by Google? New iMAX movie to be done at the Hubble telescope in 3D. Apple to make a 3g Netbook? Will there be adult apps on the Apple App store. Digital warfare center to be built out by the military.

RIP Dom DeLuise
Comic actor Dom DeLuise passed away in his sleep last night. He was 75 years old. Below is one of my earliest memories of him from his brief but memorable appearance in Blazing Saddles.
