Way Too Much Information (MLP)

Well, this is pointless but I have an overload of links which I don't want to bury in my bookmarks.

• Mod chip stuff: I get scared when my official discs don't boot (sometimes due to dust, but a few have scratched from being lent out or actually dropping accidentially). I find it stupid to have to spend over 420 on a disc whose materials cost less than $1 to produce, probally less than 10 cents, actually, so I'd like to backup my games. Plus I don't actually buy games anymore, I borrow (and lend from my "classic" PS1 library) so I'd rather not scratch anyone's discs... just backup and play. Anyhow, here are the links to the one I want that's in stock for $25 USD or so.
• I also need a printer. I haven't had my own printer for about 3 years now, maybe more. Well, the broken ones don't count. Anyhow, I'm not sure what to get... Epson, Cannon, HP?
• This DiscPainter printer thingy looks cool, but I'm sorta concerned about finding cartidges for it.
• I couldn't afford an Amiga when they were actually being made, but I always wanted a 600HD. Anyhow, the Sega CD used similar technology... sorta... same CPU, anyways. Same as the Neo Geo too, actually.
• Some nut compiles JVM code from stack to register basis. Well, it's part of the Android stack. Take that, sun! Documentation on the DalvikVM is still incomplete but rev. eng. has already begun.
  
• Oh, and... twitter/facebook addicts can now have their very own yoga routine.
• I don't use twitter (yet?) and am very non-impressed by facebook, esp. since the old evil empire (MicroSoft, for those who don't know) bought it.
