I needed a tablet. One that isn’t bad at what it does but also does not cost something like the Xoom or Galaxy Tab 10. I found the Archos 7o Internet tablet. A VERY NICE device, the thinnest around, for just 229 Euro. Most notable features: – 1 GHz chip – Multitouch display – 720p …

FAIL #44
Seen a few days ago during my lunch break. I’m really not sure if they tried to load that container on the truck, or unload it from it.

Portal to happiness
This next test may involve side effects of euphoria, depression, happiness, sadness, weakness of the knees and uncontrollable blushing – but the most important thing is to have fun with it!
