Mac vs. PC

We’ve all seen the Mac vs. PC ads on TV and the Internet portraying the superiority of the Mac’s hardware and software.  Believe it or not, many people believe that these skewed commercials actually reflect reality.  I for one, thoroughly enjoy the hilarity of them… at least until it hits me that the reason Apple continues to make more is because they’re working.

This picture illustrates the tone of the commercials perfectly.

Knight Rider is Back!

KITT

One week from today, February 17th KITT is back, bigger and better than ever.  Knight Rider is returning to the tube as a 2 hour made for TV movie.  Set your DVR now so you don’t miss the reincarnation.  9/8c on NBC!

Knight Rider was one of my favorite shows as a kid.  My dad took me to a car show once when I was in elementary school and I got to have my picture made sitting inside KITT.  Awesome memory!

As the original story resumes, the new KITT (Knight Industries Three Thousand) is absolutely the coolest car ever created: its supercomputer capable of hacking almost any system; its weapons systems efficient; and its body — thanks to its creator’s work and nanotechnology — is capable of actually shifting shape and color. Plus, its artificial intelligence makes it the ideal good cop partner: logical, precise and possessing infinite knowledge. It is the ultimate car — and someone will be willing to do anything to obtain it.
