"Hardware techies at Apple are regularly sent from California for intense two-week shifts to the city-sized FoxConn factory in Shenzhen, China where iPods are made and tested. Internally at Apple this is known as ?being sent to Mordor.?

I absolutely love the part where Frodo flies into the Eye. Weta Digital needs to fire up their computers again to do a feature-quality animation of that whole sequence.
But of course, right after Frodo gets flung in, Gollum hops on another catapult, screaming "Precioussssssssss........." as he too flies over the horizon.

Followed by Sam. "Mr Frodooooooooooo........"
