Getting rid of the Internet

I just read an interesting article about how researchers are considering scrapping the current Internet in favor of something new.

I would support the new system, but it is unlikely that anything significant will begin happen for at least several more years.

Apple TV

The Apple TV's finally out! Here's an article and a review about it. The review tells you it's audio, video, photo, and internet capabilities. I'm interested to see what happens to the Apple TV and whether it will become successful.
