I've been messing about with a little utility called BootCD over the weekend. It's fantastic. After about half an hour I had a fully bootable OS X CD, all together with some disk utilities - in case something goes wrong with my Mac. And it's free. "BootCD is a Cocoa app that creates a disk image that can be used to burn a Mac OS X boot CD with a working Finder and Dock on it. This utility is unfinished and still has some flaws, but works. The current version works much better than previous versions, and includes the ability to run Drive10 and other utilities, although Norton does not yet work from the CD." 1:41:51 PM    comment []

Robots! Have a look at robotnut's website. In his galleries are hundreds of old toy robots in all their glory. There's even a link to an Englishman who builds full size Dalek replicas, even if Daleks aren't robots. But that would be nitpicking... 9:55:52 AM    comment []
