Got this in my inbox today, did you? Are we pumped? Are we ready? Are we going to be on the lookout for Woz? Are we reading the fine print on the bottom?

Holy crapcakes, the folks love it. That headline is from the Chicago Sun Times. Boing Boing says it’s a “touch of genius.” Goatberg calls it pretty close to a “laptop killer.” I can’t tell from his review whether Pogue likes it or not. PC Magazine, USA Today, and the Houston Chronicle also chime in.

Many tech sites like to engage in some light-hearted goofiness on the first of April. Here’s a brief list- and make sure to keep your eyes peeled tomorrow.

You know, I asked myself that very question when I woke up today.  The Oatmeal is back, baby. (Mine could feed 66, it seems.)

Apple is refunding all rush shipping charges for iPad pre-orders. As Gizmodo says, apparently “Apple was charging $12 for the same delivery day as free shipping.”

It’s all sunny skies in Mozilla’s corner of the world- they say their Firefox browser commands 30% of the market.  Get their report here.

You can find his article here. Here’s his pitch, with my comments in bold:

“Steve Jobs and his cronies at Apple blew it when they named the iPad. (Impossible. Steve does not make errors.) They should have called it the ‘iDol,’ because it’s a false god if ever there was one. (iDol isn’t a bad name, I’ll give you that.) The iPad isn’t even on the shelves yet, and I’m already sick of it. (Fine- they won’t sell you one, anyway.) The ridiculous iPad-worship has gone so far over the top that it’s being heralded as a “savior,” as if we should all be wearing white ascension robes when its long-awaited coming finally happens.(Sure, formal dress is fine.) Congregations of the Apple faithful are practically fainting in ecstasy as the pundits preach from their pulpits about how the iPad will save them and their industries from the hell-fires of obsolescence. (Wouldn’t be the first time.  Like when the music business was saved by the iPod.  Have you heard of it, Donnie?)

YouTube’s got a new look.  Get more details here and here, and you can opt-in for the new design here.

Hot stuff tech reporter for CBS Marketwatch, Therese Poletti,

I gotta' admit, it's the power and the beard. I get a hot bubbly fondue just thinking 'bout him.

loves to hear

C'mon Palmisano - make my day!

Larry say how much he’s gonna put away SAP and IBM, which he has been saying now for quite a long while. While I’m pretty sure the Sun acquisition was a move directed at IBM,  Larry’s secret weapon against SAP has yet to be deployed satisfactorily, nay, it’s not even out of the oven yet. Well, it’s just all show for the stockholders, folks. Larry waves his dick, SAP’s co-CEOs have to pull theirs out, and you gotta’ an amusing sword fight, meanwhile Palmisano over at IBM, remember him, he’s busily re-arranging the deck chairs on his ship of state and all the passengers and the media thinks its dandy, while the crew are ready to mutiny, ‘ceptin’ thar be a boatload of scabs from India and The Spice Isles ready to sign on at a moment’s notice. It’s going to be fun when somebody finally snoozes S.S. Big Blue runs aground off a reef or a dastardly iceberg in the middle of some foggy night.  And Cringely will be off to the side in a dinghy yelling from his megaphone, “I told ya’ so, I told ya’ so!”
