Origins of the Pippin Video Game Console

In the early 90's, Apple started development on its tragically doomed debut into the video game console market. Dual released in Japan and the U.S. in 1995 the console was marketed as the Pippin in Japan, and as the @world in the United States. While the system was technologically superior to its main competitor on the market, the 3DO, and the Sony PlayStation that would later dominate the market, the strategies used in marketing the device to consumers caused it to crash and burn with only about 5,000 units sold in the U.S. market. It faired slightly better in Japan, but never really got a foothold on the competition.

This is an awesome commercial for Ecotricity.

My wife and I love watching reality TV. We watch shows like American Gun, American Pickers, American Restoration and we used to watch Operation Repo until we found out it was staged/fake. Another show we watch is the History Channel's Pawn Stars. This show is great... there are some really cool things that people bring in to pawn and there's always some sort of history lesson with each item. Well, we just found out that a lot of the items that people bring into Pawn Stars are staged!

There was once a man born in a distant land who came from humble beginnings and faced trails along the way.  He befriended beggars and gained power only to be crucified under the hand of a brutal tyrant.  His followers gathered his body only to witness him conquer death and become more powerful than he ever was before.   This man’s name was Conan the Barbarian.
