Not just that, but one of the robots is doing calligraphy (of course, writing 月, which means moon). It seems that it would take some innovation, considering that typically Japanese calligraphy is done with water-soluble ink, which would boil on the moon, which has no air. Furthermore, both activities don't achieve anything practical, while require extra resources (the fuel to send any significant additional weight to the moon is quite costly). Basically, I think that that picture should be labeled: "Is this really necessary?"
I believe so. It's just that the store only sells DRMed files. Kind of like how the iTunes store used to sell only DRMed files but the iPod played both DRM and non-DRM (could be applied to a wide variety of products).
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"All of these new nettops have me intrigued. I'm looking for a small, quiet and cheap PC to replace my aging tower in my home office, and all it really needs to do is load Microsoft Office, check email and surf the web. Is there a particular nettop that's better (or a better value) than another? I know it's a rather new segment, but hopefully someone has taken a chance on one already. Thanks!"
