    Where's the Carl Sagan autotune now? Come one, we all know that anaerobic glycolysis would fill a thousand 500-page volumes via "Cosmos". Now I want to hear the autotune version, please. #bloodbatteries

    I'm imagining the irony of having a device in your body to fight diabetes.

    It'd be a device that is powered by glucose to process glucose.... #bloodbatteries

    From the article "their waste products will need to be removed without allowing any harmful substances to leach out into the blood stream". That could mean that, while the metabolic waste itself may not be harmful, other components of the battery may be.

    From the limited amount I know about yeast, I don't believe they produce anything that our livers can't handle. #bloodbatteries

    Humans as living batteries? I don't like where this is going.

    Considering the fear/joy which resulted from a simple math equation like E=mc², we should think on this one.

    ...never mind "The Matrix", fear Exxon. #bloodbatteries

    If you're using yeast to process glucose, the waste product is going to be ethanol.
    I'm pretty sure I'm not alone here, but I for one would certainly pay good money for a device that charges batteries and intoxicates at the same time. #bloodbatteries

    Luckily its not related to the hardware architecture so I'm sure next quarters patch updates will include programing to improve on processor efficiency. #netbooks

    I get the same battery life as I did in XP on my Macbook Pro. I can get a little over 2 hours max with wifi off, screen almost off, and doing basic tasks. #netbooks

    OK...we just spent a week with the MBP-100 and it is freakin' amazing!

    Never had we been able to just work and work and work...without having to look for an AC outlet!
