This week on Lab Rats, Andy, Sean, and the kitties celebrate their 50th episode with a topic that’s not quite as nerdy as it has to be, but definitely important-an introduction to digital SLRs! As digital SLR cameras become more and more affordable, more people are looking to buy them and get some great shots while they’re on vacation and such. Well, the lab rats are on the case, and show you what makes an SLR so special, how much you can expect to pay for one, and they profile a few good ones just as examples.

Among the topics they chat about are Windows Vista going gold, and a crew of Swedish folks buy a tower that you can color by numbers with your cellphone, Grand Theft Mario, and much much more. All this and the week’s TechTips and WebPicks, as well as an awesome interview.
