Princess Leia's Buns: Best Movie Hairstyle Ever
http://digg.com/movies/Princess_Leia_s_Buns_Best_Movie_Hairstyle_Ever
While Princess Leia's extraordinary buns hardly had film fans flocking to the salon, they have been named the most iconic screen hairstyle of all time. 35 per cent of voters in an online poll said her hairdo stood head and shoulders above other screen coiffures. More than 7,000 movie buffs were quizzed in the survey.

Decorate your living space or just cuddle with her. If you have $800 to spare, that is.

I missed out on the awesome, limited-edition Halo Mimobots back in October so maybe I can make up for it by getting one of these sweet Series 2 Star Wars mimibots. This series features Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and Boba Fett in addition to Darth Vader, Chewbacca, Stormtrooper, and R2-D2 from the first series.

Who doesn't remember R2 projecting Princess Leia, or the massive Death Star in the Rebel control room on Yavin 4? The technology to do this is here now. Implications for medical imaging and entertainment are huge.

Leopard Introduces "Intel only" Features in iChat
http://digg.com/apple/Leopard_Introduces_Intel_only_Features_in_iChat
They all look pretty similar to those of Tiger, with one notable exception: "Photo Booth and backdrop effects require an Intel Core Duo of faster processor." If you've got a PowerPC and were looking forward to pulling a Princess Leia with the new holograph effect it looks like you've got to upgrade.
