Dig it, the Consumerist has posted 22 Confessions of a Former Dell Sales Manager an article that proposes some interesting tidbits as well as tricks you can use to get the best deals out of Dell. Like going with Small Business instead of Home Office to get you better tech support [...]

Breakfast Links: Nunatak, Baby Animals in NYC & Vector Tower Defence
You, my precious reader, may be surprised to hear that Nunatak far from being the Church’s militant nun wing is actually the house band of the Rothera Research Station in Antarctica. I recently shared a cab with a lady who worked for several years in the station and it seems like a pretty stange kind [...]

Breakfast Links: By Sea, By Land & By Space
Wow, do I have a lot of work today. Anyhow, here’s a trio of motive devices. Remember when Sir Richard Branson crossed the english channel in that car? That was totally bad ass and is why English billionaires are cooler than ours. I mean, his reality show (despite it’s bad ratings) was way better than [...]

Breakfast Links: Mr. Wizard, Men v. Women & Revolvers
I just read that Don Herbert, Mr. Wizard, passed away yesterday. That’s really sad, I remember him very will from his show on Nickelodeon. He taught me one trick I use to this day and another I used to amuse and annoy everyone around me for years. The first was when he showed a little [...]

Breakfast Links: Congestion Tolls, Miss Universe in Heroes & Bush’s Watch Stolen
UPDATE: Team Bush is denying that the watch was stolen with not one but two stories.
I thought I had blogged this before, but can’t find it - anyway Bloomberg’s congestion toll idea is picking up steam. I am totally into this idea of charging a toll to get into the lower parts of manhattan during [...]

Breakfast Links: Judd Apatow, Robo Lizard & Miho Hatori
monday. monday. art. art.
You know a lot of people think that MetaFilter has gone down hill these past years. But I still read it and it’s posts like this one that remember me why that’s so. It not only notes that this summer has not one but two Judd Apatow films (Knocked Up and Superbad), [...]

Breakfast Links: Wheelchair vs. Semi, Knitted Food & Tactics 100
First we have this strange story of a Ben Carpenter, a man in a wheelchair because of muscular distrophy. Well, he was trying to cross a highway and the traffic light changed before he was across and a semi plowed into him. I guess he must’ve been right in front of it because instead of [...]

Breakfast Links: Speed Racer, Algae & iPhone
Having just found out about Speed Racer a couple days ago, I’ve already stumbled into this video of an interview with the actors involved in the movie (not the Wachowski’s, though). There’s not really much to the interview and honestly all of them both look and sound bored - none of them genuinely seem psyched [...]

Breakfast Links: Brain Control, Restaurant Reviews & Wii vs PS3
This article is cool, exciting and scary all rolled up into one, like a rollercoaster ride! Some big brains implanted a tiny computer chip into a quadriplegic’s brain that allowed him to type 15 words per second, mouse around a screen and remote control a tv. What’s even better is that they think that soon [...]

Breakfast Links: UK, Seven Wonders & Speed Racer
Ok, so you know I’ve spent no shortage of words on the UK recently. I mean, they just make it so easy, what with all their flushing their phones down the toilet, sure one time I dropped my pager into the can - but that was a long time ago! And then there’s their recently [...]
