Gigabyte Launches Featherweight Category-Challenging Notebook
Gigabyte introduced its new X11 notebook computer on Thursday, calling it the lightest notebook on Earth. Weighing in at just 975g (2.13 lbs.) and having the thickness of just 0.3cm (0.12 in.), the computer is certainly sleek. But does this weight game really even matter?

Adam Sandler's 'That's My Boy' A 'Dream Come True' For Cast
Andy Samberg, Ciara and crew weigh in on teaming up for a Sandler comedy, during Movie Awards Sneak Peek Week.

Whether he's going back to school, tapping in golf balls or hanging out with his fellow grown-ups, Adam Sandler knows how to bring the laughs. He's especially hilarious when he's allowed to deliver his fair share of F-bombs, which he does rather liberally in "That's My Boy," his new comedy about a disgraced father — that's Sandler — trying to reconnect with his son, played by "Saturday Night Live" comedian Andy Samberg.
It's a ridiculous premise, sure; Sandler's only 12 years older than Samberg, after all. But that doesn't make working on "That's My Boy" anything less of a dream come true for Samberg. As part of our Sneak Peek Week leading up to the MTV Movie Awards on Sunday (June 3), Samberg and his "That's My Boy" co-stars joined together onstage to praise the work of Sandler, one of the Lonely Island frontman's comedy heroes.
"It was awesome to work on this," he said. "It was a full-tilt dream come true for me to be asked to do it."
Co-star Will Forte agreed, saying, "It was such a wonderful set, because Adam, who's also one of my comedy heroes, tells you exactly what he wants, then he lets you discover stuff on your own too. He points you in the right direction. He's so amazing to work with."
Amazing, yes, but vulgar too. Make no mistake: "That's My Boy" is a hard R packed to the gills with beer, bongs, boobs and bad language. "It is a dirty movie. It's a raunchy movie," Forte said. "If you've seen previews for the movie, then you have no idea what it's about, because they need to take five seconds here and five seconds there. ... It's a dirty movie."
It's not just comedy veterans like Sandler, Samberg and Forte who get dirty in "That's My Boy" either. Even Grammy-nominated singer Ciara was allowed to get in on the fun, and she said she's walking away from the Sandler experience with a desire to pursue further acting adventures.
"It was so much fun. This crew is so hilarious," she said. "From this experience, I want to do so much more. I'm determined to do more."
As for what Samberg took away from working with Ciara? "She taught me so many dance moves," he quipped.

Mozilla Messaging reintegrates with Labs, unifies focus on Web-based communication
Mozilla Messaging, citing Mozilla's increased focus on Web-borne communications, will be reintegrating with Mozilla Labs.The Messaging subsidiary was formed in 2008 to focus on Thunderbird, but given Mozilla Labs' current focus on identity and contact management, it now makes sense for the groups to be merged. Thunderbird will be unaffected by the change -- some URLs might change, but that's it -- and presumably Messaging's F1 and Raindrop will thrive in the Labs playground.
What this means for the end user -- for the hundreds of millions of Firefox users -- is that the next big additions will be communication- and messaging-oriented. Contacts and F1 will be almost certainly be baked into Firefox 5 or 6, both of which will be released this year -- and, who knows, there might be something else even more exciting up Mozilla Labs' sleeve!

Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Sunday on BBC America
Queen Elizabeth will be celebrating her Diamond Jubilee as the reigning monarch of the United Kingdom and this Sunday, BBC America will be offering throne-to-throne coverage all day. Yes, calling all Anglophiles! You know who you are! Those of us who simply cannot get enough of our favorite Royals will be in heaven this weekend. America may no longer be a colony of the British, but we still turn to them for guidance. Take for example how when it was learned that the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton, wears nude stockings that caused sales of such to skyrocket both in the UK and here in the US. Yes! Now we know why Prince William loves her so! There was a time when women who would venture into public with bare legs were considered tramps, or impoverished at the very least. Kate Middleton wearing nude stockings is bringing back the whole concept of dressing and behaving like a LADY! So is it hard to understand why we love the Royals so? A touch of class is a welcome change from the cultural slide we are bearing witness to on a daily basis. Even before becoming Queen, Princess Elizabeth demonstrated her class [...]

Facebook launches unified mobile site, announces 250 million mobile users
Facebook has announced that its two mobile sites -- m.facebook.com and touch.facebook.com -- have been unified, bringing a simpler mobile experience to Facebook users. And there are a lot of those -- a quarter billion, according to Facebook.Smartphone users won't be losing any functionality because of the consolidation. If your phone supported the enhacned features offered by touch.facebook.com, the new site will automatically flip the switch when you visit.
Rolling the sites together helps simplify things for Facebook's developer team. Now changes can be pushed to a single site instead of two separate sites, which makes it easier to ensure that all mobile users receive a nearly identical experience regardless of the device they're using.
The new Facebook mobile can also check to see if your phone supports geolocation. If it doesn't, you won't be seeing much of Facebook Places -- which obviously relies heavily on geolocation. Images can also be optimized on the fly to keep page performance from suffering on less powerful devices. You can see the three different versions of the share button below, courtesy our friends at TechCrunch.

Insert Coin: ZIP-Shooter lets you dolly around or track straight (video)
In Insert Coin, we look at an exciting new tech project that requires funding before it can hit production. If you'd like to pitch a project, please send us a tip with "Insert Coin" as the subject line.
If you're tired of shaky-vision in your films but don't have Spielbergian budgets, the ZIP-Shooter might be your secret weapon. By manipulating the wheels, you can track your DSLR, iPhone or other video cam in a straight line or around a bend, and use it as a tabletop, low or even worm-vision underslung dolly. With a 20-pound max weight limit, it'll handle most DSLR and lens combos, and you could even squeak on a light Red Scarlet package, while still collapsing it into a camera bag after usage. ZIP-Shooter is underway with $1,203 so far and a goal of $25,000 -- to see if you'd like to pledge $350 to get one, truck past the break and check the video.

'Moonrise Kingdom' Record-Breaking Weekend: Experts Weigh In
'The numbers were eye-popping. You'd think Iron Man was in the film,' one box-office expert tells MTV News of new Wes Anderson film.

As "Men in Black 3" knocked "Marvel's The Avengers" off its record-breaking throne and nabbed the title of #1 film in America over Memorial Day weekend, Focus Features' "Moonrise Kingdom" broke its own box-office records. The Wes Anderson-directed film, which opened in two theaters in New York and two in Los Angeles, grossed more than $669,000 this weekend. It raked in an average of $130,752 per location, setting a new record previously held by 2006's "Dreamgirls."
"Wes Anderson films always open in limited release with very high averages as his fanbase is very loyal," says Box Office Guru editor Gitesh Pandya, "but the 'Moonrise Kingdom' numbers were eye-popping. You'd think Iron Man was in the film."
Jeff Bock of Exhibitor Relations also attributes the success to Anderson's "ardent" fanbase.
"[His fans] have seen him produce just a handful of films over the course of his entire career, which began with 1996's 'Bottle Rocket.' Absence makes the heart grow fonder, and 'Moonrise Kingdom' is Anderson's first live-action film in five years, so there was no doubt a burning desire to see his latest whimsical dramedy," he says. "Filmmakers with unique and authentic voices are far and few between, and Anderson is something of a national treasure for the hipster collective."
"Moonrise Kingdom" takes place in the summer of 1965 and follows the search for two 12-year-olds who flee their hometown in New England for a wilderness adventure. The film's success follows its debut in Cannes, France, where it opened the city's famous film festival. Bock believes its premiere at such a large venue contributed to the buzz, keeping it in the mind of audiences — despite an influx of blockbusters hitting cinemas around the globe.
"There is always room for a small, original tale amongst the blockbuster giants of summer, and 'Moonrise Kingdom' may just be this summer's 'Midnight in Paris,' " he said, referencing the Woody Allen film that won him an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay. "The big test for ['Moonrise'] will be when it debuts in moderate wide release (400-plus theaters), reaching smaller markets that probably haven't seen a film of his since his biggest hit, 2001's 'The Royal Tenenbaums,' which grossed $52 million. While Anderson's films are revered by critics and cinephiles, wide audiences haven't exactly embraced the kooky sensibilities and eccentric outlook he emotes in his films."
But Phil Contrino of BoxOffice.com believes an A-list cast including Bruce Willis, Bill Murray, Edward Norton and Tilda Swinton will help bring the film to a broader audience — though he does think widespread popularity may be limited.
"If you don't like Wes by now, this movie won't change your mind," Contrino said. "He's burrowed very deep into his own style eccentricities."
"Moonrise Kingdom" was too late to earn any Movie Awards nominations at this year's show, but tune in this Sunday at 9 p.m. ET to celebrate your other favorite films, including "Hunger Games," "Bridesmaids" and the final "Harry Potter" film.
