Not sure we should be applauding such a world-class display of avarice and theft.

The Nordschleife is such a great circuit. Such a variety of corners. I can't believe how fast he went through Der Flippenflappenschitspreader and it looked like he nearly lost it big time at Das Fukkennerschittenselfen.

@tfskora: How could it mess with your (password-protected) router's settings? Also, it seems highly unlikely that your choice of browser would be significant.

@JoeOfTexas: No, you do not provide the source code to Apple. They will do a variety of static and dynamic analyses on your app to detect certain abuses of their non-published APIs but they do not have the source code.

@Ralph Wiley Is Poised: I ran some numbers at Edmunds and it turns out that both vehicles cost about the same. Based on used 2005 models (figures not available earlier than that) the 5-year cost (TCO) of the Escalade was $57.5k while the Boxster was $56.2k. Running costs equated to 77 cents/mile for the Escalade and…

Highly doubt the costs of running an Escalade would compare favorably to the Boxster. Smart thing to do now might be to swap the Boxster for a few oz of platinum.

@Agentmage2012: Somewhat naive, methinks. Even the best-parented, best-intentioned kids will accidentally run into garbage and malware on the internet, especially through gaming sites. Applying sensible filters makes your, and their, lives better — you don't have to worry so much when your kids are online and they,…

The entire world market for this as a road car is probably 20 units max. All of them sold to existing CLK GTR owners in the Gulf.

I just do not understand why someone in the White House or high-level military post would be using their official (and obviously recognizable) email address when registering for any kind of service. Kind of dim, don't you think?

@seven5suited: Totally. Anyone with an interest in security who is on the good guys' side does not openly divulge detailed exploits until he knows they've been closed. Perhaps he's having some kind of hissy fit that MS is not acknowledging his greatness. Sanctions would not be inappropriate.

Look, remember the last commercial we did for you that you hated? The one with the Fiat Uno, Isabella Rosselini, and the goat? Well you said "have you no f***ing brains?"

That is one good-looking car and it's heartening to see Jay out riding in it.

The reason that only 38% of recipients feel no vacation-related guilt is that 25% of your readers are on vacation!

@shua.jo.m: We can't spend all of our lives reading the fine-print of every privacy statement of every vendor/service that we deal with (assuming they even have one). Plus these things change over time, often without your knowledge.

@Unionhawk: Totally with you brother. Explicit opt-in should be a legal requirement, as in it should be illegal to share your information without explicit consent. In all situations — medical records, tax returns, credit scores, emails, what you bought last week at Wegman's, etc etc. The lot. That would require a…

@ahawks: Not here (on XP Pro) it doesn't.

@bmoreDLJ: Fortunately for him, he lives part-time on the Isle of Man which has no speed limits outside of built-up areas. The only place, other than Germany, that doesn't have a general speed limit. Like it should be, really.

@SerialThriller: Because they're building the prototype in England, perhaps to be near Lotus who provide the underlying Exige.

@jupiterthunder: Not sure I understand where the registry comes into this. This is a basic front-end to the subst feature built into Windows.

@beaudetious: Usually the rescue CD loads network drivers so you can connect to the internet. When the A/V software starts it updates its definitions from the internet.
