Happy April Fools' Day! Normally I'd make one of my usual grandiose statements about not getting fooled by this annual celebration of deception, but since I fell for that DirectX 11 dealie first thing yesterday, I guess that horse is already out of the barn (damn time zones!). Anyway, an attempt will be made to separate joke stories from the news, and hopefully we'll be successful at ferreting out the jokes, even if we can't always ferret out their humor.

Oh, and I'm making a note here: HUGE SUCCESS. I'll get that part I missed, I only allowed myself a couple of cracks at it before work.
