2. Microsoft Zune 30GB Media Player

Microsoft clearly (no pun intended) understands that not everyone has the eyes of a teenager. Sporting a larger screen, the Zune bridges the generation gap brought on by the teeny iPod video. Plus, the music can be shared wirelessly, battery life is up to 14 hours of continuous play, and it supports non-proprietary formats so you can listen - or watch - your collection on a variety of systems.

3. Nintendo Wii

Nintendo is another company bridging the generation gap, offering a game console the whole family can enjoy. No more fumbling with unwieldy controllers, the Wii offers a motion-detecting 'remote' that allows the player to truly interact with the game. Not only is playing the Wii fun, it's a great workout as well. And who said gamers were couch potatoes?

Created by the legendary game designer Shigeru Miyamoto, the Legend of Zelda series has become one of the most popular console games of all time. The latest installment, Zelda: Twilight Princess, runs on both the Nintendo Game Cube and the new Nintendo Wii.

Office Space, circa 1999, is as fresh, modern, and hilarious today as it was when it was filmed. If you've ever worked in an office - any office - this movie will be sure to delight. You'll have a fun time matching your co-workers to the quirky personas portrayed in the film.
