Forget about Aero graphics and Vista security for just a second, and hearken back to the days of Basic programming, green monitors, and cassette drives. CNET News.com reporter Daniel Terdiman recently attended the Commodore 64's 25th anniversary event at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, Calif., and he's here to take a trip down memory lane with the PC he grew up with.

What happens when e-mail meets air mail? JetBlue is finding out. The airline has just launched a new in-flight e-mail service, and News.com's Caroline McCarthy tested it out on a cross-country flight Tuesday morning. Read her hands-on review of the system--written from the plane--to see if it's smooth sailing or a bumpy ride.

Plus, Microsoft is laying the smackdown on alleged software pirates. The company has filed 52 new lawsuits against counterfeit software resellers across the world. All this and more on Tuesday's News.com daily podcast.
