Well...if you could get the Optimus Maximus Keyboard down to the price of regular keyboards, then you could choose whatever layout you wanted.

I think this makes more sense than anything else we've heard. However, Lewis is a better driver than Rosberg and I think he's going to win the title in 2014. It wouldn't be the first time that a World Champion parted with a team after the title win. I think that Mercedes-Benz would be "over the moon" to have a…

Interesting how you the headline speaks about "power-to-weight" yet all the measurements are "weight-to-power"...

Audi says the TT Sportback — built on the same MQB platform as the A3, MK7 Golf and others — is 11.4 inches longer, 2.4 inches wider and 1.2 inches shorter than the TT coupe.

Hum...2016 is a bad year...everyone knows that to pull of a win at Le Mans (a class win or overall) takes anywhere from 2-3 years for a new racing programme. So, picking the 50th anniversary of their first win is, in my view, a bad choice. They should have used 2015, at the very least, to work out the kinks. Good…

Aren't #4 and #1 essentially the same argument. Also, none of this holds true if you tend to keep your cars for a long time (like me, 10+ years) and do not want to take the risk of inheriting someone else's problems stemming from poor maintenance and abuse. Also...have you seen what's inside used cars? Top Gear…

I understand why this is so in movies and TV...but books...well, those should allow you to do anything. For example, Peter F. Hamilton's Pandora's Star and the follow up Judas Unchained has a brilliant hive-mind like alien that engineers host bodies to suit it's needs or the environment as an extension for it's mind.…

Sad, sad day. Too bad...the previous year (not the most recent, but the one before) was the best looking C63. The new M-B styling, starting with the CLA, is down right awful. The interior is too shiny with all that glossy carbon fibre making it look cheap and tacky. These cars will look dated in less than 5 years…

OK...I'd like to hear on what folks are using for backing up large volumes of data...I'm talking 5+ TB here. I have a RAID 5 NAS...but...you never know. What does one do once you get into the double digit TB range?

The current M-B "design language" is a bit too "bubbly" for me. The new A-Class looks like a '90s Taurus. I like wedges...and sledgehammers...like my SLS... :-)

Yes...that has much better designs and a "story" that could be used.

Atleast they support external HDD and I've been watching the price on a 5TB drive. Once that gets to a good price point I won't need to worry about running out of space.

Here's something to make it even better...add a means of illuminating the blade on both sides with red light. There's room in there...

What's wrong with that?

Yep...I've owned manuals for the better part of 20 years and it's getting harder and harder to find something that I like. These need to be available for at least the next 40 years...that's how long I figure I've got left on this earth!

I disagree with this. I prefer cloth seats over leather...as long as they have the proper side support...

My nearly 10 year old Audi A4 has proper iPod integration that allows me to control it via my radio while it's sitting nicely in my glove box. Why on earth my wife's brand new Toyota Highlander doesn't have this is beyond my understanding...

The tuning possibilities are mouth watering!

So, let me get this straight...Luke's hand that was cut off by Vader on Bespin somehow gets enough escape velocity to leave the gravitational field of a gas giant and travels through interstellar space to land on another planet without being burned up on entry...and still holds on to the lightsaber? OK...I can…

I remember watching a NOVA documentary about the development is this car. Very elegant design and very different approach to the Thrust SSC which was more about brute force over aerodynamics.
