Just in time for New Year’s Day, Bill Murray rants on tech in 1982!

When I saw that there were pictures of Bill Murray bitching about tech 1982, I had to see it easily.

After all who do not want to hear, the day the star of Ghost Busters, Stripes, Groundhog and talk about technology? I always thought it was a comedic genius, and to some extent he still has.

This is obviously some pictures for a show called Wired In, the seemingly never aired. The sound quality is mediocre, but you can hear what he has to say about technology. His tirade was totally spontaneous, and that was because the camera was ready for what looks like a very short clip.

As Bill Murray's ideas about robots. He did not want to create their car, but he seems to have been a problem with creating a robot co-pilot and would have to help with gas.

Since these dashboards that speaks to you, our GPS, the body which adopted. I remember those cars that speaks to you and remember you are sitting on your belt. Who really annoyed me, and they do not really have more. A light is all it takes.

As for his aversion to digital watches, I fear that most of the watches that are not digitally on the wall now. Sorry, Bill.

But what's really hard to Apple's dominance is face time that Skype video on 3G networks, not just WiFi chat. And according to Red Ferret, the use of data is not too bad, chimes in about 1.3 MB per minute.

Frankly, I'm surprised that Apple approves of this update, but maybe they are “somewhat” Update announce next month will do the same.
