The SEC Has New Bowl Game (That We'll Probably... →
This would basically be a step above the Sugar and Cotton bowls as far as prestige goes, meaning that Hugh Freeze or whoever it is replacing him in three or for years needs to win a metric shit-ton of days to get this program an invite.
Sad but true.

Lenovo dumps classic keyboard on new ThinkPad... →
The new T-series ThinkPads offer a host of enhancements over the prior models. But the classic-style keyboard has been jettisoned in favor of the chiclet, or island-style, flavor.
I bought an IBM T42p in 2004 and it is one of (if not the best) laptop I’ve ever owned, certainly my favorite. Sad now that I sold it a few years ago, but I used it longer than I have used any laptop as my...

I know of one person who owned a Zune and he really liked it. He liked the music subscription service too, it was well before the days of Rdio or Spotify. The hardware was never awful, it just came way too late.
