My favorite part is where Google became aware that their tech had been stolen when a supplier contacted them to tell them that a competitor was asking for a piece that was very similar to something Google was already making. Like...similar enough that the supplier was probably worried about their own liability if they were to produce that part.

The new Mac Pro has up to 30 MB of cache inside the processor itself. That's more than the HD in my first Mac. Somehow I'm still running out of space.
