Crave TV: Microsoft pushes journalist out of plane

Crave Stupidly, we went along, and this accompanying video is proof that we've no regard for our own personal safety, and a distinct lack of common sense. You can call Microsoft many things -- but you definitely can't call it boring.

Set Logitech mouse laser on stun

Crave There's a laser in there and you can't help rubbing it low against the side of your thigh, like a space marine fingering the safety on his low-slung automatic light pistol, and slowly moving the cursor on screen, as if by magic.

New Hulger phones confuse, delight, confuse

Crave Fortunately, both devices can be connected to your PC and used as Voice over IP handsets in the mock-free safety of your own home. The people at Hulger think mobile phone hands-free kits make you look crazy -- they say so on their website.

Crave Talk: Is Wi-Fi the 21st century plague?

Crave Talk: Use Macs Sophos? Are you mad?

Crave Graham Cluley told us the two platforms could be likened to Baghdad and Bournemouth in terms of safety, but was quick to add that those who are capable of protecting themselves (by configuring firewalls and so on) should stick to Windows.
