Gadgets & Tech – PC World's marketing department declared the death of the floppy disk yesterday, generating a wave of publicity that even rivalled Bill Gates' touting of Vista. The chain said it would eject floppies once it has cleared existing stock. It reckons that by the summer, none of the laptops or PCs it sells will actually include floppy drives.

Gadgets & Tech – The Metasploit Project plans to add 802.11 (Wi-Fi) exploits to a new version of its point-and-click attack tool, a move that simplifies the way wireless drivers and devices are exploited. The controversial open-source project, created and maintained by HD Moore, of Austin, Texas, has added a new exploit class that allows modules to send raw 802.11 frames at one of the most vulnerable parts of the operating system.

Sports – ESPN surveyed eight World Series participants -- four Cardinals and four Tigers -- about a concept that's batted around every now and then and never taken seriously by anyone.

Popular Videos – It's been said that the average American will see two million TV commercials by the time he or she turns 65. Doing some quick math in my head, I believe that means that I've seen...well, a terrifyingly large number of commercials for PCs and related products over the past 26 years or so. You too, maybe.
