What a crazy year at the Consumer Electronics Show! CES 2016 is a perfect mix of that past and future. Vinyl’s back with a vengeance. Tablets are cool again, and so is charging your iPhone. At the same time, virtual reality is finally showing up in force, and the future is banging down our door.

1) Over 170,000 people attend the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas. How does a show get this big, and why is it so important?
2) One Chinese booth was raid by the U.S. Marshals at this year’s show…and that’s not the first time this has happened. Here’s the story: http://money.cnn.com/2016/01/08/technology/hoverboard-raid-ces-2016-onewheel/. Why would a company publically display a completely ripped off product as show a public event?
