Features, Office Remember those great "home of the future" demonstrations from days past? If you're not old enough to remember them from world fairs, Disneyland, or movie newsreels, you've probably seen the cartoons parodying them: Robotic maids, self-cleaning kitchens, futuristic-looking plastic furniture, dehydrated food; everything white, round, and sparkling. Well, it's the future now, and it didn't exactly turn out the way they thought it would, but thanks to ubiquitous computer technology, today's home can have capabilities that futurists 50 years ago would never have imagined.

I've already fixed it. I have no idea what the hell happened, but luckily, Safari had the story in its cache, so I was able to fix it.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Perhaps the "OSNews Software of the Future" will be perfect, have no bugs, and bring world peace through its incredibly wise stewardship of environmental resources that causes everyone to live together as one.

Nah, that's going so far out, that's even wilder than the "House of the Future" predictions in the 50's ;)
