The 17″ MacBook Pro is out as of like 2 minutes ago: http://www.apple.com/macbookpro/ Looks like the main thing it sports over the 15″ is the larger screen, FireWire 800, 3 USB ports rather than 2, and an 8x DL superdrive. Not bad though 🙂

Another very cool news item for the day, missing link between water and land-inhabiting organisms at Nature: here.
The article is somewhat sparse on the details, but it does have a few neat videos of a new type of walking robot. The unique and cleaver thing about this one? It uses only a modicum of sensors which detect when the legs are touching the ground and…
