Editor’s Note: Every Saturday Morning we take a departure from our normal tech coverage for a little internet video fun. We take a look at extreme sports, hot movie trailers, stop-motion animation, and pretty much whatever cool video we happen to come across on the internet.
Tron: Legacy was one of the biggest movies of 2011, when the franchise was resurrected from the 1980′s. On the wings of that success Disney has created an animated TV series called Tron: Uprising which will debut on June 7th. The new series comes from Disney XD and features the voices of Mandy Moore, Lance Henriksen, and Paul Ruebens. Now the first big trailer has been released and it features two full minutes of previews, which you can watch below.

Lenovo, one of the most respected PC makers, recently released a video showing a bit of why their hardware is thought of as being so reliable that they are one of top makers in the corporate world. Their ThinkCentre desktops and ThinkPad laptops are solid computers all-around and now they have a line of mini desktops labeled the M92, M92p, and M72e.
The new video shows the series of tests that Lenovo puts their hardware through to check it’s reliability. You’ll see the PC’s dropped, struck, slammed, shaken, filled with dust, heated and frozen, and more.
Hopefully none of this will happen to your PC, but if it does then it seems you you’ll have pretty good odds that the device will survive. You can check out the video below and check out the products at Lenovo.

Recently the X Prize Foundation held a video contest based around exploration of good old planet earth. While many of us are fascinated with other worlds, and we should be, there is still plenty left to find on Terra Firma. Not only are our deep oceans almost completely a mystery, but many of us really should experience other places on earth like deserts, arctic, vast ancient forests, and more.
The winning video was shot in Iceland during the time of the midnight sun. The videographer, Joe Capra, spent more that two weeks traveling around Iceland and shooting images of some of the most amazing landscapes anywhere. For his efforts Capra picked up a $10,000 expedition to anywhere he chooses to go and the world picked up a chance to experience Iceland like never before. You can check out the video below.
