| New iMacs: Aluminum, glass, and a new keyboard. That's the big product line update? Somebody wake us when Leopard finally arrives. |
| Free Microsoft Works: Low-cost office suite finally joins the club--sort of. It's free only to OEMs. Honestly, you couldn't pay us to use it. |
| Filtering on YouTube: Without illegal copies of TV shows, what's left? Man cannot live on Diet Coke and Mentos, and strange Japanese TV, alone. |
| Second Life Charity Walk: Do people pressing <Up Arrow> qualify as walkers? No matter--raising money to fight cancer is never a bad thing. |
| Don't Fear the Google: Bill Gates doesn't--at least not as a mobile phone competitor. It worked great for Web search, so why not keep it up? |
| Thunderbird Leaves the Nest: Apparently Thunderbirds are no longer "go" at the Mozilla Foundation. We wish the mail client well on its own. |
