Mount it on one of those lotus-elise-looking cars that can convert from ground to underwater. It'd be cool to beach view something as it decends into the water then see underwater. A shark attack in 360 views would be exciting.

I remember when I was moving over to the Firedog support team at Circuit City a few years back (CC's Geek Squad) the techs to the same thing, sounds like even less.

It was all a huge ripoff just to make the desktop look pretty.

College Professor Equates "Nerd" and "Geek" to Racial Epithets

My girlfriend and friends call me a geek and nerd all the time, then call me a retard in the same sentence. But they all look up to me because I have this mysterious ability to make things work properly. I'm happy to have people call me the G word or the N word (nerd) because then everybody knows I'm the guy who has the cool home theatre/computer/electronic gadgets setup in a way that just makes everything mesh fantastically to provide a truer experience of technology use. However, in high school I was a 3-sport jock who loved computers, so what am I to do?
Ahhh, Betty Childs, we love you when you're mad.
