Hi!
How about a section on distributed computing?
That $500 computer you're building is probably going to vaste 99% of it's cpu cycles during its life time.
Why not show people how they can use their exponentially growing cpu power to benefit science?
Show people how, for example, Folding@Home (folding.stanford.edu) enable people to contribute to unraveling the mysteries of protein folding.
This may lead to discoveries in medical fields such as cancer, alzheimers, parkinsons etc... the list goes on.
Way to many cpu cycles get wasted every second. Please use your show to open peoples eyes and contribute to science :)
Cheers
