Olivia Munn on Lopez tonight

Iceland is all about being (literally) cool, which is why they want to become the server capital of the world. They offer natural cooling crucial to cutting down data center costs and energy consumption.

Adaptive roof-tiling technology that absorbs heat during the winter and reflects it during the summer. How? Simply by switching between black and white.

A summary of Leo Laporte’s career. For some reason, I find Laporte hotter than Olivia Munn.

Bill Gates (and his own Commander Melissa) recently provided a cost estimate to the FCC: $10 Billion needed to run fiber optic cables to various educational institutions and hospitals in the US.

Apparently, around 40 years ago, the US navy was working on pigeon-guided missile technology.

Rest in peace Stephen Gately. The Boyzone singer’s last tweet is available for everyone to read here.

Now that I’ve moved into a new mouseless apartment, I can finally settle down and live the dream of digital cable television. First things first, though: I need a new TV. Since it’s been eights years since I’ve even considered buying a new box, needless to say I need all the help I can get. Luckily I’ve got Jeff, Wilson, and CNET’s HDTV World to help me decide on a size, resolution, and brand! Feel free to send me your shopping advice or hot deals at the404(at)cnet(dot)com or @the404 on Twitter.

Everyone’s talking about the latest gossip: Attack of the Show stole our show motto! In light of this controversy, our buddy Blake Stevenson drafted the amazing fight announcement poster you see to the left.

With so many awesome fans like Blake on our side, we’re sure to win this Battle for the Brow. And if you think that Kevin Pereira and Olivia Munn can even occupy the same air as our low brow-itude, you’re on the wrong side of the ring. D-Topping, pearl necklaces, bean bag chairs, buzz-outlouding!? We DARE Attack of the Show to step to us and find out what happens when you mess with the Nerdy Dirty (please don’t steal that one).

Jeff brings a great first story to the table about Best Buy’s Geek Squad charging $130 to set up a PlayStation 3! This story is so ridiculous that it actually prompts Jeff to bring back the classic “ARE YOU KIDDIN’ ME!?” and sadly…they aren’t. Neither Best Buy nor Geek Squad have the best customer service reputation, but this might as well be a crime. We understand that there are some fairly techno-inept folks out there, but setting up a PS3 literally requires one plug. Save your $130 and buy some games.

Finally, much thanks to Brian from Pittsburgh–the first winner of our “Take-a-photo-of-yourself-in-a-hockey-rink-with-a-404-sign” competition! Click on the thumbnail over yonder to see him in all his hockey-garb glory. A copy of NHL 10 is on its way to your doorstep, Brian! There’s still time left to submit YOUR photo to the404(at)cnet(dot)com, so don’t sleep on your chance to win!

What happens when one extremely popular tech TV show with an attractive female host blatantly takes the slogan of a much lesser known Internet radio show with three mildly humorous, if not a bit awkward, post-pubescent manboys? You’re about to find out on today’s episode of The 404, where Attack of the Show’s GadgetPr0n stole our tagline, “High Tech, Low Brow.” Now, I’m a little unwilling to compromise my relationship with Olivia Munn, the , but Jeff and Wilson are heated and propose an all-out battle for the right to the slogan!

The new simulated reality video game DJ Hero keeps on adding musicians to the growing list of special guests- this time, they just recently announced a collaboration with Daft Punk. The game will come out on October 30th, but we’re pretty psyched to mash-up tracks from those French Robots. Well, Jeff and I are- Wilson is still confused about how the game works and why people listen to music in the first place.

Which brings us to a huge Calls From the Public- we got so many voicemails over our three-day weekend that we have to take the entire second half of the show just to play them all. Of course, we have to re-visit the dreadful washing machine/computer hypothetical that got drummed up on Thursday’s show. In a world where humans are enslaved by free-thinking computers, the man atop the washing machine reigns supreme King. This fall, look out for Wilson G. Tang break-out role in…THE CLEANER.

Ah, there’s nothing like a little random tweet to start a rumor.

“Just finished promos for hulu/microsoft event I’m doing on june 8!” Olivia Munn of G4′s “Attack of the Show” wrote on her Twitter feed last night.

Seems harmless enough on the surface, …
