TechPowerUp has a look at the Parrot AR.Drone  and this is cool enough to almost make me want to use an Apple product... almost.  For those of you not familiar with this product - check out the review and get your taste in the video below.

   Unlike a remote controlled helicopter the AR.Drone is a more stable craft and it has some semi-autonomous features. The Drone starts, hovers. . .

If you missed the last Myth Busters, you'll need to watch the grand finale' below.  They try and fuse metal with a rocket sled and a card.  I don't think it worked, but it is certainly worth a watch.  This is not hardware related, but it is geek related. . .

SWEET!!!    great video!!!

Satan greets him: "welcome Mr. Gates, we've been waiting for you. This will be your home for all eternity. You've been selfish, greedy and a big liar all your life. Now, since you've got me in a good mood, I'll be generous and give you a choice of three places in which you'll be locked up forever.

Satan takes bill to a huge lake of fire in which millions of poor souls are tormented and tortured. He then takes him to a massive coliseum where thousands of people are chased about and devoured by starving lions. Finally, he takes bill to a tiny room in which there is a bottle of the finest wine sitting on a table. To bill's delight, he sees a pc in the corner. Without hesitation, bill says "I'll take this option."

"Fine," says Satan, allowing bill to enter the room. Satan locks the room after bill.

As he turns around, he bumps into Lucifer. "That was bill gates!" Cried Lucifer. "Why did you give him the best place of all!"

"That's what everyone thinks" snickered satan.

"The bottle has a hole in it!"

"What about the pc?"

"It's got windows 95!" Laughed Satan.

"And it's missing three keys,"

"Which three?"

"Control, alt and delete."
