Origin PC joins the 11-inch, rebadged gaming laptop party, outs the EON 11-S

Last week may have drawn to a close, but the march of Clevo news continues. On the heels of Maingear announcing an 11-inch gaming notebook, Origin PC is throwing its own ultraportable into the ring: the EON 11-S. Though this is a new model for the company (the smallest laptop it's ever sold, in fact), it's not quite fresh to us: this is the same exact Clevo-made notebook Maingear unveiled two days ago, only re-badged under Origin PC's brand and available in a wider range of colors. As far as performance goes, then, that means you can expect Ivy Bridge processors, a 2GB NVIDIA GT 650M GPU, Optimus graphics-switching technology and a battery rated for 6.5 hours of runtime. In Origin PC's case, the laptop starts at $999 (compared with $1,099 for Maingear), though you'll have to head over to Origin's site for a breakdown of what specs you'll be getting at that lower price. (Spoiler alert: adding an Ivy Bridge CPU instantly bumps the price to $1,294.)

Justice Department clears Google of WiFi wiretapping violations

Two years ago, Google drove its way into a fair amount of hot water when it accidentally (as was claimed) scooped up private data over WiFi while collecting Street View and location data. Now, the Justice Department has cleared the prolific mapsters of the wiretapping violations. The DOJ made its decision not to push for prosecution based on reports from employees and investigating key documents reports Wired. The Wiretap Act (which is the relevant one here) was argued to only pertain to "traditional radio services," by US District Judge James Ware, but neither the DOJ or FCC said they could find any evidence that Google accessed the date it snared. In an extra move of openness, the search giant has also released the entire FCC report on the Street View investigation (redacted to protect identities) which can be found in the more coverage link. So, next time you see the famous camera-topped wagons roll around, you can leave your tin hat in the closet.

Who Are the Most Powerful Gay Men & Women in America?

It has been said (by the writers of Game of Thrones, among others) that someone is powerful when others believe that person powerful. But Out has a much more precise definition: According to the magazine's sixth annual list of the most powerful gay men and women in America -- powerful people are those who "influence the way others live -- either through their public personas, politics, or wealth -- and affect cultural and social attitudes."

Kim Kardashian Kameos on 30 Rock Live Episode

Dear residents of the Pacific Time Zone: we are very sorry.

Last night, 30 Rock actually aired two episodes, both live, both featuring different versions. Those on the East Coast were treated to legendary musician Paul McCartney making a cameo. Those on the West Coast? Kim Kardashian.

Some might consider that a step down.

Dressed like a professional Kabletown worker, Kim first showed up for a scene in Jack's office, wandering in, shaking Alec Baldwin's hand and using the bathroom.

She then appeared later after one character proposed to another and Tina Fey's Liz Lemom mocked her own show's ratings by saying: "Wow, 2.5 million people just saw that."

Enter Kim and a video recorded and the line: "Now 14 million people just saw that. You're welcome."

"Anyone see 30 Rock tonight??? I had a blast!!!! Love this show!" Kim Tweeted following her surprise visit.

Sigh. Let's all relive the best 30 Rock quotes now at TV Fanatic and pretend like this cameo never existed.
