What's the only thing worse than Vista? Vista SP1. In other news, we wonder what the world is coming to, as Microsoft and Sprint both make big, powerful moves toward openness and interoperability. We feel so off-balance and yet strangely thrilled. Also, are social networks totally over? We investigate.

In today's news, we adopt a turtle, you should send some money to Larry Lessig (or a turtle), and PC gaming lives on! In your brain! No, seriously! A new PC Gaming Alliance combined with a mind-control gaming headset have PC gaming looking cool again. Also, Wii Fit is coming out in the U.S. on May 19, so start your diets then.

Blu-Ray wins, we try to exorcise our studio of its many demons, and speaking of demons, the digital photo frame infestation turns hellish. In other news, we think we've figured out the mystery of What Made Scoble Cry, and much to our surprise, it wasn't "The Bucket List." It just might be a Microsoft-made map of the universe. Cool.

Follow my logic here. The only thing keeping you interested in high-def DVDs might be the format war. What if a war ends and nobody cares? Plus, we predict winners in the console war, and we get a turtle named after us! Yay for turtles!

Rush Limbaugh is asking Steve Jobs for help with his Mac Pros. Hey, Rush, give us a call! We'll help! In other news, Microsoft is teaching kids how to crack down on their intellectual property before they're even out of knickers. (Knickers? Knickers.) Oh, and Twitter hits the New York Times Fashion and Style section. Apocalypse is nigh.

Not like, @acedtect, pack up your stuff. More like, poor Yahoo folks are getting pink slips this week, and we're totally reliving it with them on Twitter. Weird.

In the news today, Microsoft says no to Yahoo's no, Verizon says there's no need to degrade P2P traffic, and Bill Gates says no to 8,000 Facebook friend requests. Also, analysts (and Steve Jobs and AT&T's CEO) say a 3G iPhone is coming "soon," which is probably good news for all the BlackBerry owners suffering yet another unexplained critical outage. Get it together, RIM!

Perhaps the tech giants of the world are all hopped up on the Clear, and that's why they're trying to create MicroHoo/GooNet super-teams. Actually, Yahoo isn't on board unless Microsoft sweetens the pot, so Microsoft was forced to go buy Danger while it waits. In other news, we saw some Android but it was the Nokia N96 that really made us drool. A lot.

By the time you read this, Yahoo--and the world--may know it's fate. However, Steve Ballmer, who likely would call it destiny, says Yahoo will stay around as a brand. What does that mean for poor MSN? And by extension, MSNBC? Will they go the way of Bob? Or Clippy? Only time and a few earnings calls will say for sure. Meanwhile, Congress and the judiciary system in the U.S. are kicking it into high gear in the tech sector.

Sometimes there's just no news. And sometimes there's just rumors of news. Today is an example of the latter. Half the stories today are rumors of somebody coming out with some products or somebody buying somebody else. Plus, we critique my resume.

Now, we hear that a fifth Internet cable has been severed in the Middle East. One cable is fine. Even two is not that unusual. But five? Let the conspiracy theories begin! We also review some goings-on with Wikipedia editors, and unveil Sprint's totally-unlimited-everything cell phone plan.

The RIAA does what it does for the artists. That's why it sues their fans. It's just trying to help out the artists. Like songwriters. Although songwriters make a little too much money. That's why the RIAA wants the Copyright Royalty Board to reduce the mechanical rate, so the artists get less money per song. Something isn't making sense to me here. But I'm sure I just don't understand the complexities of the music business. Meanwhile the N-Gage is back. Woo-hoo!

Nintendo says cigarette ash is causing problems with the gameplay of "Super Smash Brothers Brawl." Funny, I would have thought that would be more of a problem with Wii Sports, and with players' lungs, not the optical drive. Plus, we keep you up to date on the Yahoo-Microsoft merger prospects and how Google is being a third wheel now.

What to name a company resulting from the merger of Yahoo and Microsoft is probably the least of their concerns right now. First, Yahoo has to accept the bid. If they don't, Microsoft may get pushy. Then they have to merge two very different companies. Who does this benefit? You? We'll discuss that on today's show.

Serious news today: A cut submarine cable damages Middle East Internet access, Amazon acquires Audible, and we rail against "super duper" as a serious political news term. In other news, the C Block hits its reserve price, and Verizon and the RIAA agree that the government shouldn't mandate ISP-level traffic filtering. Although the RIAA still wouldn't mind if Verizon did it just to be nice.

Rounding down to zero? Don't be ridiculous. Forcing ISPs to monitor and filter Internet traffic in order to guarantee that music artists continue to make money, so that the ISPs feel some sort of moral obligation to keep U2 in fancy leather pants. It sounds illogical when you put it that way, right? We thought so.

According to one scientist, the world is most likely to end due to asteroid impact or a black hole, but either way, we'll be reading books when it happens. Also today, could Automatttic kill Twitter? Qtrax still hasn't launched and is still infuriating artists, and a Norwegian TV show goes on Bittorrent ... on purpose.

BOL can now predict, based one early returns, Blu-Ray will win the high-definition format war. But tune in tomorrow, there's still a close race for second place! HD VMD could make a surprise showing! In other news, Scientology, for once, is the one under attack, and Qtrax ... well. Poor Qtrax.

Deletions happen, people. Would you rather look out for crazy employees (like the one who deleted $2.5 million worth of architectural records because she thought she might get fired) and careless ISPs (like Charter, which accidentally wiped out 14,000 email accounts), or just back up and settle down? I bet a Drobo's looking pretty good right now, eh?

Leo LaPorte sits in today, and the next thing you know, the four of us decided to write a novel together. On Twitter. Yeah, we're not allowed to hang out together anymore. In other news, will Google end up buying the 700MHz spectrum (the auction starts tomorrow) or are they just throwing their money around to get the rules changed in their favor? Best guess: both.
