All I Want For Christmas
08 Dec 2003 by Sarah Hatter
Oh, that I was born too soon! Here’s some hot new toys from The Discovery Store:
The DNA Explorer which “helps junior scientists extract and map real deoxyribonucleic acid!!” Fun!
The Whodunit? Forensics Lab which teaches kids to “analyze handwriting, decipher blood type and examine mysterious fibers.” Cool!
The Spy Motion Tracking System “tracks movement up to 75 feet away.” Awesome!
The Trading Spaces Design and Redesign House! HOLY CRAP!!! Why am I not 12 years old?!

Forensics lab? DNA Explorer? And to think that the other day I was impressed by a fully automatic, adjustable speed nerf gun...

My son has the spy tracker - got it last year for Christmas. One of those "perfect for irratating your sister" toys.

Does the Trading Spaces House come with a glue gun and spray paint?

And to think I was happy with H.O. cars (I still have many), a football and a 10-speed bike.
My, how times have changed.
Cool stuff.

At WWDC, I listened to Apple representatives make some excellent points about taking the time to build a 100%-compliant Aqua application, and I think all developers need to look beyond the code and listen to what the folks at Apple have to say
