I haven't seen one of these old television sets in a long time. Back in the old days, this is what people gathered around to watch.

Star Wars Printable Masks Let Your Kiddies Probe The Galaxy In Style
We always joke in our Bit Rebels articles that in order to raise the next generation of Star Wars fans right, you gotta get 'em started young.

Bit: First Electronic Personal Helicopter Prototype Unveiled
A few months ago, I wrote about the first personal jet pack available to the public. Back then it was priced at just around $250,000.

Humanoid Decor: Hand Painted Robot Light Switch Covers
If you have a room in your home that needs a little jazzing up, sometimes it only takes a few minor changes to give it a whole new look. For me, that room is the bathroom.
