Streaming live ambiance from the surface of Mars would be interesting. It's still eerie to me to see photos of the surface, simply because of the colors and shades present in the sand. It's (bad joke) out of this world.
Luckily, the Surface RT is a huge hit. It has neither Windows or Office!
Shameless plug: I use the QuickJava addon, since it lets you tolerate JS/Java/Flash/SL/Cookies/Images/Ani GIFs/CSS per page. I only use it for a few, but it's easier than hunting down the options menu.
I'd like to see someone try playing on Vogon's Anarchy server. It's just a blur of movement, pixels, and death on a normal computer... which would be just as pretty on the Retina Display!
If both the RT and Pro could run Linux without working around secure UEFI boot, it would be a selling point. A major selling point for the RT, considering its current level of success.
I was also hoping for a female doctor, but this is a good shift from the past two Doctors. (Please note, this is coming from a new-ish fan, so I have no room to judge with merit.)
I was at a rummage sale looking around, when I spotted a rather spiffy blue briefcase. After purchasing it, I took it home and was loading it with a few things when I noticed a small square of paper. It was the obituary for the person who had owned it before. Talk about creepy.
I wonder if any of those job positions ever got filled...
Lustmord's Ambient album "The Place Where The Black Stars Hang" sounds like this, only done without the sound inputs from data samples.
Surely you have a few old boomboxes laying around?
Check out this post, should be an... inpromptu solution.

The issue of similarities to the Monk classes between Hellfire and D3 were addressed in the summary on here. In Hellfire, it was a far east style monk, versus the "eastern european" feel they are trying to create this time.
Now, had they gone with that far east feel (which is what I first assumed when I heard about this), then they were borrowing more than just a name from a prior game.
Blizzard seems to be borrowing a WHOLE LOT from themselves on Diablo II.
Borrowing from one game to the successor is alright, but they've borrowed a good deal from Diablo II for the original WoW. As long as it's all in good taste, I say let it.
Also, when thinking of the monk, I think of the official expansion for Diablo 1 that added the Monk class originally.
