Say hello to “the world’s first production model 3D bio-printer .” What you’re looking at is a machine capable of arranging human cells and artificial scaffolds into complex three-dimensional structures, which result in such wonderful things as replacement liver and kidney tissue, or such simple niceties as artificially grown teeth. All we’re told of the internal workings is that the bio-printer utilizes laser-calibrated print heads and that its design is the first to offer sufficiently wide flexibility of use to make the device viable.

In these articles, he’ll explore where our industry is and where it’s going — on both micro and macro levels — with the unique wit and insight only he can provide. As the year comes to a close, it seems appropriate to cast my vote for the best (and some of the worst) gadgets I’ve seen.

It’s about time that the number one netbook manufacturer officially release details on its Pine Trail packing netbooks.

The rest of the specs are standard fare - Windows 7 Starter, 1GB of RAM, 160GB hard drive, and a 4,400 mAh six-cell battery
