We couldn't bribe the folks at Tesla Motors to let Roger take a spin at the wheel of the Tesla Roadster... but they did let him shoot video of the electric powered supercar that Cade 'test drove' for PCMag.. Hint: he wants one if somebody else will pick up the tab. • High end CRT monitors for Graphics Pros? Most of 'em we know use LCD panels, Cjay. CRT's bigger than 21 inches with computer resolutions are hard to find. If you want the top o' the line, think $2000-$6000 10-16 bit perfectly back lit monsters such as Eizo's ColorEdge series, Sony's Luma, NEC's Professional MultiSync.

Microsoft dropped a special release to kill off a GDI vulnerability (aka the Cursor Exploit Fix.) • "Where can I get a copy of the Firefox poster you showed on episode 147? What I really is just a jpeg to use for wallpaper." Gotcha covered, Greg. Here's the link where you candownload the world's cutest Firefox poster aka "Please don't break the Web" already sized up for your monitor. • Yeah, Robert and Patrick are obsessed with Deskt
