Han Shot First -- The T-Shirt Entertainment

PVP, one of the best online comics, is selling Han Shot First t-shirts. If you don't get the reference, or the comic, then it just means that you're not a geek, and that's not a bad thing either. :)

I try to tell myself that Greedo's shot was just a flinch in reaction to Han's shot. Yeah, that explains how he missed from two feet away.

Update: [24 Jan 2004] The shirts are sold out, but more are coming. From the PVP web site:

The Han Shot First shirts sold out, we made more, and then they sold out again. So we're going to make more of those really soon. I think we're going to redsign it a little...make it a bit less....infrigny.

Scratch This! Computers

Phillips has come out with a scratch resistant DVD that can take a lot more abuse than current DVDs. They also claim that this opens the way for DVDs that hold 10 times as much data.

The technology is actual a coating that protects the surface, so it isn't tied to any specific DVD format. Blu-ray and HD DVD can both use it to improve their disks, and maybe Blu-ray can get rid of the protective cartridges that it currently requires.
