Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the preparation-of-food-with-heat dept.

Kisom writes "Everyone knows Apple isn't famous for their cold notebooks. Dan Lurie however discovered it was possible to cook eggs on the bottom of his MacBook. Even though it took three times as long to cook the egg, Apple should probably be concerned."

    From the summary: Even though it took three times as long to cook the egg, Apple should probably be concerned. Actually McDonalds should be concerned. Apple is coming out with a previously unannounced, now leaked, new product, the Egg MacMuffin.

You'd think twice about trying to pull a gun on a superhero who just caused your buddy's teeth to explode in his head without so much as blinking. Oh, you might try to run, but I think one of his other powers is immobolizing you on a platform, making it impossible for you to migrate anywhere else. Criminals are dragged off to jail where they sit until they Switch or Think Different.

      I've heard, however, that Macman is vulnerable to flying chairs, and that you can force him to revert to mortal form (a la Shazam back to Billy Batson) by shouting "Developers!" over and over. In fact, this was how he was defeated back in issue #382 by his arch nemesis performing both actions silmutaneously. Macman only barely fended off the storm of flying chairs by counteracting it with a storm of flying toasters and then wounding his arch-enemy with his very last HyperCard.

    Steve Jobs is announcing that the iPod Souffle will be available in November.

    And this time, they won't need a disclaimer warning you not to eat it!
