I love that plane. Broke a speed record for a cross-country flight on the way to it's retirement ceremony. Sure, it has a turning radius of Montana, but SexyFastSpyPlane!

Any car, with the right shoes. (Nokian Hakka 2s are my preferred choice.)

Two words: road head.

12V power port. Crazy inefficient legacy design for a plug that will 99% of the time be converted to USB or 120V. Nobody includes lighters in the car anymore - why stick with a standard built for electric lighters?

However—- each student doesn't get a new textbook for every class, every year. If you assume a 4 year lifespan for physical books, then the price for the tree/pulp model drops to $800/student/year.

Audi@CES - when a car is more "consumer electronics" than "car", then you know you've landed in Apple-land.

I wipe Rainex on the headlights, and clean them every chance I get. I don't have one of the 3 cars in existence with headlight sprayers or wipers, so I try to make a conscious effort to keep the lenses clear.

i was going to guess, but then they printed the answer right on the refrigerator!

The radar doesn't help with collision avoidance, but it does start a Google Hangout with friends as you run them over so you can see the expression on their faces.

Forget the "professionals" in the booths. (Sorry.) I want to talk to designers & engineers. People who made the cars I'm looking at.

I live in New England, and have friends from here that insist they only need Snow Tires on their drive wheels, not all 4. "I only have 2 wheel drive" they say."

The biggest difference - If you put cheese on most Western foods, it tastes better. If you put cheese on most Asian foods, it's garbage.

Boston's Big Dig. All leak/budget issues aside, they did take a major artery through one of the densest, oldest cities in the country, and buried it. Below sea level.

Jaguar vs. competent electrical systems?

I live near there. I'd love to pave the f@&ker and put in a proper rotary. Which is a pretty sad statement, now that I think about it.

Bandwidth is the key point there. Cloud storage and compute are about as cheap as you can buy yourself today, at a certain scale. But the bandwidth for high I/O is the killer for the cloud right now.
