I saw this today from Engadget:
If you get this in a fun meal, does it come with a toy too? I could use a new mouse or USB drive.

Opera Browser for the Wii
Tonight I was reading some of my favorite sites, one of them being Neowin.net. They had a story about Nintendo now allowing you to download the Internet Channel for free on the Wii. The browser is Opera which includes Flash Lite 3.1. So I gave it a shot and it wasn’t too bad. It will be several years IMHO before it would replace a browser on a PC, but for the most part I was able to view this site with the YouTube video links, look at the pictures I took at the circus, and search on Google. I tried to read a PDF but received an error stating it could not open it – unsupported file format or something.
Since I don’t have a Wii keyboard, I had to use the remote to point to each letter on the screen keyboard to enter a url.

I found this video by Adam Sacks on Youtube tonight.
What are hard disk platters made of? At first I thought it was aluminum alloy or some other light weight material. And to be honest I never gave it much thought – until today.
When we take a hard drive out of service at work, we destroy the disk. Usually we bust out the TORX screwdriver (size T8 and or T10) and remove the outer case. Then we remove the circuit board, the magnets for the actuator arm, and then the actuator arm. Finally you are left with a stack of platters which you can leave in the bottom of the case or remove them.
So this afternoon I was on the phone with my wife and playing with the platters I removed from a drive about a week ago. I dropped on the floor and to my astonishment it shattered! So after cleaning up my mess I was curious and needed to know. Click the link from Wikipedia and scroll down to Manufacture.
This has been around for a while, I just happen to come across it tonight on YouTube.

I saw this episode when it first came out on Big Bang Theory. I forgot about it until someone mentioned it to me the other day. So this is more of a test post with YouTube stuff. Enjoy!
