    For your evening amusement (and nothing more), Flickr user elbewerk has found a creative way to try and convince people that, no, he's not actually using a PC. Persuasive? Perhaps not. But at least it's marginally more honest about being a PC compared to, say, an MSI Wind. [Via Digg.]

    Gizmodo found these pictures of a customized MSI Wind laptop that comes complete with glossy finishes, Apple logos and Mac OS X. The laptops feature the name "MacBook Nano." The laptops have 10-inch screens, 2GB of RAM, 320GB hard disks, a flash media reader, and the specifications feature Windows XP Professional and Mac OS X 10.5.5. Gizmodo notes that they can't tell if the laptops are a custom hack, or are being illegally sold. Descriptions on the images appear to be in Chinese, so if you can let us know what they say, be so kind as to leave us a comment!

    We'd like to officially congratulate the Sony marketing team for graduating from offensive to merely "sending the wrong message." Sony Italy is handing out fake books complete with fake hands to disguise PSP play from those pesky authority figures. There's even a helpful outline of the book you're not reading to get you out of any jams. LeVar Burton will be so disappointed.[Via The Raw Feed]
