MacBook Pro Fastest Windows Laptop? Not So Fast
"The fastest Windows notebook we tested this year is a Mac," writes PC World about the MacBook Pro after it scored an 88 on its WorldBench 6 Beta 2 benchmark. Only problem is, it looks like that same publication reviewed a Eurocom D900C Phantom-X laptop that achieved a better score on that same benchmark, a 97 (higher number is better). So what gives? Too bad PC World contradicted itself, but the Apple propaganda machine played right along, trumpeting in one of its annoying spots the humiliating results of a MacBook Pro running Windows better than any other laptops. Not quite. Check out PC World's benchmark tables of the two machines, side-by-side: More »

Steampunk meets The Matrix in Sony's crazy spot that reminds me of a bad dream I had last week. The company is trying to somehow illustrate how the processor power of the PS3 can keep you one step ahead, but we're just thinking somebody slipped some kind of special fairy dust into the bong bowl hidden in the back room of Sony's ad agency. We've seen some weird ads, but this one reaches a new level of strange. What a peculiar concept! No wonder Sony's thinking about ditching TBWA/Chiat/Day, its ad agency covering the PS3. But wait. The spot moved me to show it to you, so it must've succeeded on some level. [CrunchGear]

Second Rotation Buys Your Old Gadgets
If you want to dump off your old cellphone, camera or MP3 player but don't want to deal with the hassle of not getting robbed off Craigslist, check out Second Rotation. These guys have a gigantic "bluebook"-like list of what gadgets are worth and will pay you cash money within ten days of receiving the item (provided it's not in horrible condition). Sure, it's going to be less than what you'd get from selling it to some rando on eBay, but dealing with a company rather than some stranger seems safer and more convenient to us.
