That's why it really makes sense for Google to come out with a free operating system. Google needs to keep the Web humming, and what better way than to ensure that there are plenty of supercheap Web tablets out there? It must be odd these days to be Eric Schmidt. Not only is he Google's CEO, but he's a board member of Apple...

...someone to take you to the Buddhist monastery, where the legions of wild monkeys will eat out of your hand. And definitely set aside an hour to visit Boom Boom Room (Serendipity Beach Road; +855-12-219-657), where you can load up your iPod or MP3 player with supercheap music...

Founded in 2005, easyCruise made an immediate splash with supercheap cruises of the Caribbean. Since then, the line's bright orange ships have expanded to the Mediterranean and the canals of the Netherlands and Belgium. But this season, Hadji-Ioannou discontinued the Riviera route, redeploying one (so far) of his ships to ply the coasts of his home country, beginning May 18. "Greece is an ideal environment for this unique concept to work best," he says. "Its cluster of close-distance islands means more itineraries--and money for us--rather than sailing the Riviera coast." Like the pioneer...
