When I first saw this video showing Windows XP booting off an Intel iMac, I was really excited. Of course, Sara’s reaction was far more realistic:

The USB Arms Race Newest Weapon: Air Darts

When I saw this come over the wire, my first thought was a revengeful Milton targetting Lumberg from his cubicle (ala Office Space warfare).

It’s been a while since a USB toy excited us as much as the compressed-air darts available through Marks & Spencer, of all places, for a mere £19.50 ($33.43). The USB-powered darts come in a set of three, are Mac and PC-compatible and can be controlled via a mouse. We’re already making plans to figure out how to control a set over VNC so we can deploy these against the dude in the next cube while we’re a safe distance away. He’ll never know what hit him.

I think Liz has seen the light!

I was just looking but not really looking at my “Start” button and I swear to God it said “Stab.”

Personally, I think she’s got the right idea. ;)
