iPhone & Samsung...strange bedfellows

A friend asked me to replace the battery in their iPod classic. When I pulled it apart I was pretty surprised to see the Samsung name.

Had no idea the hard drive in an iPod would be a Samsung product. Just goes to show you can't believe what you see on television.

The Royal Christening

I've never really understood the fascination we have with the Royal family. This week Prince George's christening is right there with other stories about the Affordable Care Act's misfiring website and the Nevada school shooting. It would seem to the me that stories about the Royal family should be categorized as Entertainment news and not run as a top story along with stories that impact the public at large. Maybe the feel good aspect of the Royal family stories affects the public at large? Maybe that's the fascination? I guess in that sense the stories make sense for some.  For me, I'll continue to change the channel and page until I find news that's purposeful.
