That was great. But it doesn't top their: World of World of Warcraft news story where you can play the part of a person playing World of Warcraft.

I liked the tease at the end for the story about the Sudoku Killer.

Gee, I thought you were gonna talk about the Mac Rumors live blog getting hacked during the keynote today. First clue: the entry that said "STEVE JOBS JUST DIED :"

However, Engadget had the best live blog commentary, bar none, today.

"I'll buy almost anything if it's shiny and made by Apple."

Priceless.

Heh... Man, I love The Onion.

Of course, at the real Macworld expo... iPhoto got face recognition, among other things. Very cool. And the new 17" MacBook Pro now has a non-removable battery which lasts 8 hours. Wow.

"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 dicking around."

That's so perfect.

So who do you have in the death pool, Tony Bennett or Steve Jobs?

Actually, removing the DRM from itunes songs is about the biggest news, for me, to ever come out of these Apple events. I've actually had to burn those stupid m4p files to a CD, and then rip the CD back to mp3 files, to be able to play them on my home PC.
