"And if probably in that sense Saturday Night Fever had more impact than Empire Strikes Back." I don't know about that. Saturday Night Fever was made after the disco era started. Has had no spoofs (Family Guy, Robot Chicken). And I doubt you'd find anyone who can recite more than one quote in that movie. The same can't be said about the Empire Strikes back, where any number of people could probably remember any given scene or quote from that movie.

I don't know if it's in the movie, but I played a few minutes of the new Tron video game and the corruption stuff is in there from the Tron 2.0 game.

Every few years I dig that game out and play it on whatever newer hardware I have. I think the tron universe is to me what Pandora is to Avatar fans. Neat lights, no insects.

I don't know, my 3.5 year old daughter and 1.5 year old son love daddy's "omputer" far more than TV right now. They can draw and color wherever they touch, then send the picture to grandma. Play animal sounds by touching the picture. They can watch an awesome animated Toy Story book as it reads to them (I read to my kids everyday, but try as I might I can't make books animated). She can watch cartoons on netflix anywhere in the house. And that's just in the first few weeks, Who knows what they'll come up with months from now. I went on a trip a few weeks ago and took my iPad and my laptop. My laptop is still in it's bag.

Now I am like some of you in that your against apple's walled garden, but it's a big damn garden and I've yet to find something I need that's not in here.
