Two Genetic Engineers on an unauthorized experiment, by introducing Human DNA into a new animal species. God-like it may seem. But, the two are about to discover, that their creation is turning into something that is not we thought of to be.

Humans as we are, and the boundaries of our knowledge and the thirst for deeper meaning of things could really bring us enlightenment and sometimes, worst, left us falling into the deeps of destruction and nothingness.

According to Jobs, iPad is Magical. But Ballmer says it's a just another PC

Steve Ballmer, Microsoft CEO, countered the idea, that, the era of PC is waning. Maybe he can't sleep over the idea, a PC being a big old farm truck. That carries nothing but stacks of hay. Compared to the automatic and sophisticated cars in the city, Steve Jobs could mean that the PC has no longer a place in the current technology trend.

But, Steve Ballmer says otherwise. The iPad is just another PC with a different form factor. What the Apple did with the b was indeed magical. But then, at the end of the day, users send e-mails, surf the web and create documents in a PC. PC's are not created equal. With the iPad's limited functionality, it just can't do as much as a PC does and not everbody could afford it.
