Apple iPAD outed in Borders bookstore survey?

Now, we don’t really know what to think about this one, considering how many rumors are swirling about upcoming Apple devices at the moment, but make of it what you will. An online survey currently being conducted by Borders bookstore lists the “Apple iPAD (large screen reading device)” in one of its questions about e-readers. There along with the Amazon Kindle, the Kindle DX, the Sony Reader and the Plastic Logic Reader is the option to check “I plan to buy an Apple IPAD this year.” It’s safe to say that there are two options here: either Borders has access to some privileged Apple tablet / Kindle killer info that we, the wondering masses, do not (and yet is still making blunders like “Blackberry” and “Apple iTouch”) — or they’re just assuming that there must be some truth to all the fuss. And hey, who could blame them? Like we said, we’re not going to put too much stock in it, but go ahead and hit the read link to take the survey for yourself — but be forewarned: you’re going to have to dish on your opinion of Dan Brown before you get to the good stuff.

    It is the end of another era at NASA, although this one was perhaps more inevitable than others. Chief Information Officer Linda Cureton announced in a blog post over the weekend that the agency's last mainframe computer was shut down this month, marking an end to decades of room-filling computers. Needless to say, that last mainframe was considerably newer than that pictured above.… »
