Dell Studio Hybrid is for real; Scrabulous no more
The Dell Studio Hybrid computer that I mentioned yesterday is now a three-dimensional reality:
Dell has not always been known for its fashion-forward PCs, but this is definitely a step in the right direction. The diminutive setup includes a wireless keyboard and mouse, a PC base that looks more like an external hard drive and a flat-screen monitor.
It also comes in multiple colors and one possibly ill-advised Bamboo model:
The energy-efficient Hybrid starts at $499 and be equipped with a Blu-ray drive as an optional feature.
Oh, Scrabulous.
The popular Scrabble-like Facebook application is no more. Hasbro has added its own version of Scrabble to the social networking site and has taken legal action against the popular knockoff.
It didn’t take long for a Scrabble protest group to show up on Facebook.
The New York Times Bits blog has more updates — apparently the Scrabulous developers took the game offline themselves in North America, not Facebook.
