Bout time!

Sony, after 12 years has finally announced the end of Floppy Disks.  Not really sure what took so long, I don't really remember the last time I used one of these..  However I can reminisce the days of my child hood when I was trying to become a hacker and learn everything I could about computers and I had tonsss of these 2.55MB wonders lying around.. I have a  closet full of them here somewhere..

After spending 50 years in 2 Oak casks and then combined into one American Oak barrel for another 6 months this half century old line of Glenfiddich Whiskey is somthing I'll probably never get to taste.. It's an extremely rare bottle and sells for $16,000..

Another neat use for an iPad..

Some DIY guy out in Cali decided to find good use of some space in his Toyota Tacoma.. not bad

Can't wait to see where this $8.5 million order went..

Some "top secret client" just placed an $8.5 million order for PicoP's laser display engine to "embed in a high-end mobile media player.."  said player is rumored to come out late this year but won't be announced much sooner than it's release time.. bummer but leads me to wonder who may have made the investment.  It would be cool to have this feature in my next phone!  put a bunch of movies on it and watch them on my wall or somthing.. very cool
