Check out Zoho Mail for an alternative to Google Apps email interface [1]. Has worked pretty well for me when handling several non-proit email platforms. It isn't as pretty of an interface as Gmail or google, but I have found it to be reliable and cost-inexpensive.

Artificial General Intelligence, I believe: 'Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is the intelligence of a (hypothetical) machine that could successfully perform any intellectual task that a human being can. It is a primary goal of artificial intelligence research and an important topic for science fiction writers and futurists. Artificial general intelligence is also referred to as "strong AI", "full AI" or as the ability to perform "general intelligent action".'[1] In comparison to just AI, which is currently available in modern tech as algorithms and such (see Watson). But, AGI represents what a sci-fi writer would envision an Artificial Intelligence to be capable of.

I need a good shot with a laptop screen in the main focus taking up the majority of the shot to animate with a demo, but with an interesting and clean background.
