This is why glass desks are bad, ladies and gentlemen. - Jordan Hofker

But damn they are sexy! The secret is to NOT weigh it down like they did. A monitor, keyboard, and mouse is all that should ever be on a glass desk. - Sparky, liker of beards

So, I should stop storing my freeweights on one??? - Jordan Hofker

I used to have a full glass desk. It was made of safety glass, though, and the sides, back support and top were glued together. It supported my laptop with all the peripherals. And sometimes even my legs when I put my feet up. :-) - Rene Wirtz

I'm generally scared to even touch glass desks. They just look....breakable. - Jordan Hofker

With the right glass, you shouldn't. Think about, cars have glass windshields and they can withstand quite the impact. - Rene Wirtz

Yeah, but most windshields cost more than the general glass desk you pick up. :-) - Jordan Hofker

@rversaw You have a blu-ray player?

Feels good to be back at my desk with more than just a laptop in front of me.

@jbrinkman When I've added my Gmail account (imap or pop3), it's caused Outlook to run really slowly. Is one of your servers slow?

@moltman @KielO Note that I consider Silverlight a "lesser evil" in the web space, but I'm a big proponent of it for web/desktop crossover.

@moltman Not to mention the HTML-as-a-Brush stuff they showed yesterday.

@moltman And I think Canvas is fine, but to me, Silverlight enables cross-platform "WPF" development, which is sweet.

@sherhof That sounds really tasty.

@moltman @kielo Silverlight vs. Canvas/HTML5, I assume.

@sarahintampa Nope. :-)

@qrevolution It's more that I wanted other people to see my awesome idea. :-p

@moltman MS made (is making?) something to support Eclipse-based development for Silverlight. http://www.eclipse4sl.org/

Chrome OS sounds like a good idea until you realize that web-only isn't always a really good idea. Can I use Firefox in Chrome OS?

@tysonj Nice! Do something to distract him :-)

. @tysonj Maybe a laptop rental/trial business is called for? I can rent/try one for $20/day or something to get a feel for it?

. @tysonj Maybe let users rent out / trade laptops? Be responsible for your own backups/restoring after rental?

Thursday from Twitter - Comment - Like - Share

@tysonj Well, they'd probably charge you a restocking fee to take care of those costs. Dell's is up to 15% of purchase price.

@tysonj It's not a bad idea, but it seems like restocking or whatever would be killer.

@jessahhh Whip out a Sega emulator and play some Vectorman. That's always a good time.

@KielO I'm skeptical of the black. Outside looks good, but the inside surfaces look glossy/fingerprinty. However, specs and build look good.

New Engadget is nice, but what's up with the font? Too much TNR (or something) going on.
