It remains to be seen if the wheel will catch on in the business world, where people use computers for actual work and not just [fooling] around.
LOL!

This is one of the best Apple parodies I've seen in a long time.

Saw this over on Engadget. http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/m...-news-network/
Thumb resize.

Pretty Funny. Just a spoof obviously but I thought this was very amusing. Especially the part when they said " I'll buy almost any thing that's new and shiney made by Apple"
