Ok this is one I happen to like because I am interested in "blade" technology. This article talks about recently discovered blade technology dating to 500,000 years ago. The blade technology has been considered, up until the last 10 years or so, to be the hallmark of modern humans making their way into Europe AND part of the reason why modern humans defeated (or out competed) Neandertals. Now these same "hallmarks of humanity" have been discovered prior to modern humans arrival on the seen. Or at least when we think they emerged. That may change too, with new discoveries. These tools were not used by Neandertals but by Homo heidelbergensis.

I wonder if the new blade technology will lead to the same thing?

LOL!
Now see, Ginny, the link Bugsy posted here is going to start a whole big argument about Mac vs. PC. Blade Technology is PC-based and here you are about to get all uppity about that Mac you use because you'll think we're implying PC superiority.
I would like to say I never implied anything like that and it was Bugsy that started the whole thing.
Blade technology was replaced in prehistory and the modern Blade Technology wimpy server whatsits will be replaced again . .. one day they will equate PC with the Oldowan technology and Macs will look like the industrial revolution
