First Look at Windows 7’s User Interface
http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20081028-first-look-at-windows-7.html

I think that this new computer will be a good balance of everything that a user wants. I also think that Mac will no longer be able to take advantage of the system’s flaws (as well as they could).

Google just bought a fighter jet to complement the Boeing 767 and other jets that they own. The Dornier Alpha Jet purchased by Sergey Brin and Larry Page is stored in a hanger at Moffett Field in Mountain View. The plane came with scientific instruments to help out NASA missions. For all of you who made of those nerds in high school, now is the best time to send those apologies, or it may just get bad for you…
