finally a replacement joke for that long running one where people accidently bid on stuff by moving at an auction....
now instead of that we can have a charactor accidently hurting his companions by nodding accidently around a car equiped with this 'feature'
cmon slashdot we all know that unbelievable stories are more convincing than totally believable ones, IF this one where real then you would have stated in big BOLD type "THIS IS NOT AN APRIL FOOLS JOKE AIMED AT MAKING NERDS APPEAR EVEN FREAKIER TO THE GENERAL POPULOUS"
"This reminds me of the Far Side cartoon where the cows drop to all fours when humans come around, but resume standing on two legs otherwise." And I for one welcome our new mollusk overlords."

The Mercury News reports that the international Cassini spacecraft has discovered that Saturn's moon Enceladus has a significant atmosphere

.... An 'independant' group of linux nerds (lets give them a name like: information technology aliance; ITA for short) and get them to go around drafting reports about how windows ins't scaleable or cost effective and BSODS are really confusing
and what kind of operating system has a screen of death anyway?
