As I continue to do research on this whole Microsoft Surface business, I'm finding myself more and more excited about it.

Check it out for yourself before you cast judgement on this non Apple product

Joel was talking about how he couldn't decide what phone to buy, neither can I. I heard about the new Windows Phone 7 announced a few weeks back and I think its genius. About time Microsoft stepped up its game in the mobile phone world. It's probably coming out towards the end of this year and I don't want to wait. I hope it turns out to be as cool and perfect as it sounds.

So this Youtube user named Scorpiongold drew this totally made up/fantasy world on Microsoft Paint. I really wanted to stop watching after about 43 seconds, but I actually felt bad for him...That he dedicated 4 years to this and I got bored of it after 43 seconds, so I forced myself to watch the whole thing.

So are you running Windows 7 yet? Cause, you know, it was released today. And its awesome. I downloaded my free Professional copy from Stony Brook’s MSDNAA site, like last month. You can probably get a copy free too if your school is part of the MSDNAA program and are taking a certain course.

You can also get it with a college discount, get 3 copies of Home Premium from Costco for $135, torrent it, or worst case scenario, get it at full retail price.

Devin Coldewey went over to Microsoft’s Labs and got to see some of the new multi-touch mice that Microsoft's working on. Really interesting stuff.

The coolest one is definitely the cap mouse. It seems like the easiest to use and the most comfortable. The other ones seem kinda bulky and weird.

David Bradely, the inventor of CTRL ALT DEL, talks at the 20th anniversary of the IBM PC about what CTRL ALT DEL was originally used for and also makes a cheeky remark to Bill Gates.

If you didn’t know, Microsoft has been running a bunch of commercials to show off laptops running Windows. They’re usually about how expensive Macs are and how awesome and cheap PCs are, this one is a little different.
