Dear Microsoft
Dear Microsoft, Windows 7 is pretty good, it might even make up for the Vista cock-up launch. I’m even writing this on the Windows 7 beta. But according to Gizmodo you’re going to make five(!) versions of Windows 7… YOU DON’T NEED FIVE VERSIONS!!! You need one! Keep it simple! Don’t confuse people more than you have to.
So pretty please, with sugar on top: Make one version of Windows 7! Thanks

Lego is starting to roll out Augmented Reality in-store kiosks. Just show the box and the model appears in 3D. Very cool.
