Dr. Dave's birthday falls on a remarkable broadcast day: the 65th anniversary of D-Day and the commercial launch of the Palm Pre. Palm product manager Matt Crowley joins the program for a launch-day look at webOS and a company trying to rise again, while Dr. Dave makes his unprecedented promise to recommend Windows 7 from its first day. Elsewhere he argues that America's strength belongs to its people, explains why patient and methodical thinking beats frustrated guesswork, and uses the new Bing to show why hiding complexity behind simplicity is itself a rare skill.
