Generally speaking, HP’s Mini-Note 2133 is pretty well loved the world over. Sure, there are a few things that could use tweaking, but what good gadget couldn’t use even a small dose of overhaul? Nevertheless, a few reports have been trickling in suggesting that HP’s netbook is suddenly going dark and refusing to start back up. Folks are apparently being told that it’s a motherboard power failure, though it doesn’t seem to have become widespread just yet… or has it? Let us know in comments below.

Wipe those tears away, budding astronaut. SpaceX’s latest failure wasn’t completely in vain. According to head honcho Elon Musk, the problem came just after a “picture perfect first stage flight” when a longer than expected thrust decay transient of the new Merlin 1C regeneratively cooled engine became “just enough to overcome the stage separation pusher impulse.” You honestly may need to be a rocket scientist to digest all of that, but here’s something even the layman can understand: Musk wants flight 4 in the air as early as next month. We’re told that the long gap between flights 2 and 3 was simply due to all that engine engineering, but technologically speaking, nothing will change for the next attempt. Godspeed, Falcon 1 (v4).

We’ve always heard that there’s no need in regretting, and apparently, Toshiba is following said mantra after the collapse of its beloved high-definition movie format. In an interview with TechRadar, Toshiba’s deputy general manager of HD DVD Olivier Van Wynendaele stated that it “wouldn’t change anything that it did,” and continued on to say that “circumstances saw to it that [Toshiba] had to make the decision not to continue, but that doesn’t mean [the company] did anything wrong.” Just in case you couldn’t already sense the inability to swallow one’s pride, Mr. Van Wynendaele also proclaimed that its format was “a finished standard, unlike Blu-ray,” and concluded by noting that HD DVD was still “better than Blu-ray.” Maybe he really didn’t get the memo?
