Star Wars credits redone in the style of Saul Bass

Nicely done, but for the title with Ben Burtt and John Williams he uses Max Rebo, the piano playing elephant thing from Return of the Jedi, which is not in A New Hope. He should have used one of the cantina players.

Ford truck with RFID tool tracker

February 6, 2008 9:16am

On the surface, this appears to be a great idea, but I wonder how many guys in construction are knowledgeable about the security risks of RFID? I bet a lot of guys have a box lid for their trucks that locks and leave their tools in it, so they don't have to load and unload their tools everyday. As people can't see what's inside, they probably have few break-ins. But now someone with a RFID reader could scan a bunch of trucks, find the ones with the most valuable tools, and break in.

It's cybersquatting, unless his name is also Ed Stelmach, then I think it should be first come, first serve.

Western Digital network drives crippled -- no serving any multimedia files

December 6, 2007 11:13am

"Due to unverifiable media license authentication" Western Digital is not a content provider, why do they need to verify media? Does my iPod need to verify my MP3s? I think the legal team got a little too overzealous. When people find out they can't access their multimedia files, they'll be returning them to the stores in droves.
