Buzz Report: Save us from Windows Vista

2008-03-11
hi I'm Molly wood and welcome to the buzz report this week's grab ulis a windows vista pylon and killer Stars but first it's the gadget of the week the gadget of the week is the Logitech Squeezebox duet it's a little two-part Wi-Fi equipped digital audio system that will find all the music on your home network or on a subscription music site or on an internet radio station and play it you plug the box into your home stereo and then use the little remote to navigate to whatever music you want to play and then you play it and it works and it's pretty easy to use I don't really even have anything snotty to say about it it's a cena editor's choice it's just a really cool idea i mean it cost 400 bucks that kind of hurts but it's super cool except the name is kind of dorky Squeezebox but other than that it is perfect and now it's time to turn our attention to an extremely important issue scrab ulis for months now scrab ulis has been in danger the game which is a cheerful and ultra addictive online ripoff of scrabble came under fire by the makers of scrabble buzzkill fans went crazy starting petitions to save scribe ulis and then this week realnetworks stepped in and said they might you know I'll be able to help out with the situation cuz they've dig this grab ulis and they might own some rights to Scrabble which could probably install nine kinds of adware anybody inscribe ulis notifications all the time but whatever at least you'd be able to play but then this week Silicon Alley Insider reported the possibility that a scribe ulis deal might not happen because the two brothers who created it are demanding tens of millions of dollars for it so like it's kind of like if I stole your car and I tricked it out a lot with some fly rims and an xbox 360 with the plasma TV in the trunk and stuff and then everybody in the neighborhood loved it and I gave rides all the time and I really did a lot of work on it so then when the cops came along and they said hey you have to give that car back I said pay me 50 million dollars you feel me well it's Friday and that must mean it's time for some terrible Windows Vista news this week Microsoft said it would delay service pack 1 for Windows Vista ultimate because of problems with 31 language packs the news follows a wave of already terrible news about Vista and sp1 it's available now supposedly only to Microsoft developer Network subscribers but apparently some people just have it randomly show up and when it does show up there's a good chance it'll break some of your applications especially security act and all of this comes after Microsoft had to stop distributing a Vista update related to the service pack there was preventing users from starting up their pcs after they installed it and they actually lowered the price of this so because we assume they're desperate to sell some copies you know this is really not as much fun as I thought it was gonna be pretty much just sad and now for a new segment on the buzz report that I'm calling you might remember a few weeks ago when the US Navy shot down and out of control spy satellite that was threatening to crash into Earth and poison us with toxic hydrazine fuel yeah that was nothing check this out Wow pretty picture right know that my friends is a nearby star system that's home to one highly unstable star that's nearing the end of its life you know supernova and when it does go supernova there's a chance it could throw off an intense beam of gamma rays that if aimed at earth could strip away our ozone layer and cause mass extinction like of us yes the chances are remote and yes the star probably won't go supernova for a couple hundred thousand years but you know what I freakin hate space I'm Hollywood and this has been the buzz report thanks for watching you
