I have been surfing around the Internet for why comic books died. I learned that Marvel Comics went to bankruptcy in the 1990s in 2008 and movies generated all the profit they needed. The comic books used to be 4 color pathlets which are cheap to make and those have been collectible. When Marvel and DC increased the colors to 64 colors, the magazines began to die in the late 1990s. Magna is never a good decision. Books stores used to carry competitions of Marvel comics before they stopped doing this also.
Right now it is 25 to 35 year olds buying videogames and they been doing this since Nintendo entertainment system.

Google Chrome OS is NOT Ubuntu in an sense it does Ubuntu things
Google Chrome OS may be Ubuntu under the hood, but it isn't Ubuntu with Gnome. It will be a ninchi. My mother won't like Chrome OS. Maybe other moms like Chrome OS. If somebody asks, it does everything Ubuntu would do except for the GUI aspect.
…Supposedly, Google’s Chrome Netbook is expected to be made by Inventec and will be shipping 60,000 to 70,000 units in their initial shipment. After this Chrome notebook is announced, the source that spoke with Digitimes reports that Acer and Hewlett-Packard will follow up with products in December. Both follow-up products will be manufactured by Quanta Computer.
I doubt that Chrome OS can outdo Ubuntu in the desktop market anytime in the future. It may make it into the top 10 linux distros, but it won't have the huge impact like Google says it will.

Toy Industry going bankrupt in few years
I've seen all the really low prices on toys, because they're no longer fashionable! Here are what children want these days.
The top 10 toys for Christmas 2010, according to the report are:
1.) iPhone 4 (14%)
2.) iPod touch (13%)
3.) iPad (12%)
4.) Kinect for Xbox (6%)
5.) Zhu Zhu Pet Hamsters / Kung Zhu Hamsters (5%)
6.) Flip Video camera (4%)
7.) Toy Story 3 Jet Pack Buzz Lightyear (4%)
8.) PlayStation Move (4%)
What’s more amazing is that 39 percent of children in all age categories surveyed wanted Apple products, while 17% of 5-8 yeaer old’s wanted something from Apple, 50% of 9-12 year olds wanted an Apple product and 13-16 years olds requested Apple products 66% of the time.
With 2,138 children polled the numbers should be a pretty accurate demographic for U.S. Children.
You know what? This toy industry going bankrupt thing was already predicted in a videogame called Syberia from 2002 and it got 9.1. I came across it reading Secret of Monkey Island Special Edition and Monkey Island LeChuck's Revenge Special Edition. I do not own the Xbox version.
