Great comparison

Bottom right corner of the Dragon screen has an alert - "Your Free Trial Period for McAfee Anti-Virus has expired" !!

Fisher-Price doesn't make manned space vehicles ... but if they did ...

But to be fair - it's excellent!! A new vehicle for a new era of manned space flight - now let's see if we can remember how to get to the moon!

Can't see the cup holder in the Dragon pic though....

I do wonder what OS they are using. Hopefully linux. Would have for windows enterprise edition to insist on an update half way into the flight.

Oh for Christ sake, it is the 21st century. You have them pop out with a USB/FireWire charger

I thought it was because they would have 'hovercups'

Hover-tankard, would be better - and at least if someone got drunk in space then falling over would be practically impossible...

I volunteer to be the first space drunkard.

But there was a queue ... darned mod privileges

#1 would be more EMP proof. The fact we got men to the moon on that is amazing.

Yeah, powered by those manually compiled computer programs written by those amazing genius women ... what they did with so little... but now look - capsules with barely a button, knob or switch - with launch stages that can practically land themselves for use again in the future. Auto docking - computers and, and, and ... space really is exciting again. Fair play to SpaceX, they've really worked on the presentation of the whole "show" - particularly in terms of showing how the mission is progressing, what is happening, what should happen and capturing everything for the public to see. I hope they continue with their enthusiastic and innovative approach to it all, they have been a breath of fresh of air!

Do those SpaceX space suits take into account the change in bust size of women once they realize they will be on TV?

I'd be more excited about Space X if Elon Musk didn't have such powerful Classic Bond Villain energy.

Even now, he could be planning an amusing death for us alll...

[Mr. X]

Only Elon can build that giant mecha-godzilla we all deserve.

Only Elon can build that giant mecha-godzilla we all deserve.

At least it will be green energy powered

And then it goes mad and causes hideous environmental damage and we all cry "Oh, bitter irony!"
