With the launch of Windows 7 this week, we've seen a number of product marketing attempts that made us ask "what on earth does this have to do with anything?"

After searching around for more Bugatti related appliances I found that they are all part of a set of appliances that Bugatti make, to complement the Coffee maker, tea kettle and toaster there is also the Bugatti Vela Blender.
and the Bugati Uma electronic Kitchen Scale With Timer.
Unfortunately I think these the only appliances left in the Bugatti line so I don’t think this warrants it’s own segment on the show
Much love
Khalid from England
Jason,
What’s up with the same t-shirt 2 weeks in a row?
Love the guys
Ross
were you aware that you have a wiki? I didn’t make it, and it has almost nothing on it. The real reason that i brought it up is that you guys commonly mention how many segments you have. There is a page that manages to keep track of the common ones.
with a little housekeeping, it could be an interesting way to take care of that mess of things like “golf crap” that are very uncommon.

It begins with iPhone 3 software details, progresses into face stealing, and somehow ends up at a claw machine containing a mountain of mammaries. Obviously words do nothing to express the joy of this week's Gadgettes.
