NSFW: Hot, Sexy & Raunchy German Sprite Commercial!

How I wish I lived in Germany: Where the ladies are fine, the beer flows like a river, and commercials can basically be porn. Here is a German commercial for Sprite, the fantastic lemon-lime soft drink, that blew my mind... no pun intended.

Google Unveils Cr-48: First Chrome OS Laptop

We've had plenty of pre-knowledge on this, but surprisingly this is our first actual glimpse of Google's new unbranded "Cr-48," the very first Chrome OS laptop. Google will distribute the laptop through its Chrome OS Pilot Program, in a sort of public beta. You actually have to apply to join the program, and there are going to be a limited number of the laptops available -- retail Chrome OS models from Acer and Samsung will be available in the middle of 2011 for the masses. Google's doing a number of little promotions to give away the devices to interested users and businesses which will provide feedback, and it looks like there's no way to actually pay money for one right now.

Thanks again to Ford for sponsoring the show this week. We've had a ton of fun with the Fiesta this year and gotten to show you guys a bunch of cool things about it. Aside from being able to fit a whole Christmas tree INSIDE a car that can fit in any parking spot in town, the Fiesta has technology that would put many more expensive cars to shame. It comes loaded with all kinds of stuff like send to sync that allows you stream audio/calls, in car diagnostics, hands free everything...even adjustable ambient lighting. This car IS a pretty big deal. Thanks again to Ford!
