On a more general note, we know it’s been kind of quiet here lately, which is partly due to the current situation regarding the Terminator franchise rights as well as in part to the approaching holiday season and all that entails. That said, we’d like to remind you that our Operation: Deploy Sarah DVD Drive ends in just under a week, so if you haven’t donated yet, head over here and contribute what you can.
We’ve got some more fan interactive things planned for after the DVD drive that will lead us into the holiday season, so keep an eye out in the coming weeks.
The Sarah Connor Chronicles was recently featured in a Japanese cable schedule, and an awesome fan was kind enough to scan it for us to share with all of you. Thanks, Mark!

And in a follow up to the earlier news regarding the auctioning off of the Terminator franchise rights, Joss Whedon recently published a hilarious open letter to the Terminator owners.
Our apologies once again for the incredible delay but the CPU USB flash drives have finally arrived! Orders are now shipping from California.
The rights to the Terminator film franchise will be auctioned this month in a deal that will test Hollywood intellectual property valuations at a time when film industry profits are under pressure from falling DVD sales.
…
The rights are being sold by Halcyon, the production company behind Terminator Salvation, the latest instalment in the series, which grossed $380m worldwide. The auction does not cover earlier Terminator films.
The rights will give the buyer the ability to make new Terminator films, TV programmes and other spin-offs that build on the popularity of the franchise.
