(ok so there's not a picture of it, but it's probably nearby)
 
The second spectacular is being processed by YouTube as we speak.

Bell no. 209 - Bell's Law of Computer Classes

Bell's Law of Computer Classes
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bell's Law of Computer Classes formulated by Gordon Bell in 1972 describes how computer classes form, evolve and may eventually die out. New classes create new applications resulting in new markets and new industries. Bell considers the law to be partially a corollary to Moore's Law which states "the number of transistors per chip double every 24 months". Unlike Moore's Law, a new computer class is usually based on lower cost components that have fewer transistors or less bits on a magnetic surface, etc. A new class forms about every decade. It also takes up to a decade to understand how the class formed, evolved, and is likely to continue. Once formed, a lower priced class may evolve in performance to take over and disrupt an existing class. This evolution has caused clusters of scalable personal computers with 1 to thousands of computers to span a price and performance range of use from a PC, through mainframes, to become the largest supercomputers of the day. Scalable clusters became a universal class beginning in the mid-1990s; by 2010, clusters of at least one million, independent computers will constitute the world's largest cluster.

Definition: Roughly every decade a new, lower priced computer class forms based on a new programming platform, network, and interface resulting in new usage and the establishment of a new industry.

Seems fine to me. You can ask for a formal ruling from the arbiter of bells, if you're unsure.
 
As you're new - I'll put Rhythmbastard on the list of shame in your place.

widge should have known better though :(
