Reward

I received my new iPod today. It's a pretty impressive piece of engineering - even the packaging carries over that whole slick design. I guess the intended effect is pretty similar to that of those apes in "2001: A Space Odyssey" when they spotted the black monolith. It's funny how big, industrially milled cubes/cuboids have that reasonance, and are thus a common device of the technology industry to make us go "oooo" at their latest piece of kit.

Yes, I too am being manipulated.... what can I say? I love new gadgets!
