@rogger_frogger: That doesn't surprise me much, but that's mostly because my perception of everyone in Europe/UK driving a hatch.

@rogger_frogger: The WRX was never not available as a sedan. The STi sedan was stopped, though. In other news, the STi sedan is ugly.

I don't see the desktop space becoming irrelevant. With smartphones and tables and netbooks being so cheap, but not powerful enough on their own, they'll end up being second to another computer. Given that these all fill the mobile role, it's cheaper to get a desktop to sit down and get work done on (in the home, not

@Phatric: They are represented in RGB color space, and black is an element in CMYK printing. Good enough for me.

@Cribbage Left: 68000 through 68999 are acceptable and encouraged.

@ortizlgnd4: Not to mention the siren just before the car starts the pursuit. Obviously racist test engineers.

@mediatone: Air bags are dangerous if you aren't wearing your seatbelt, and there's no airbag to keep you from flying into the passenger seat (as driver). A helmet would interfere with this device.

The goggles were to keep his eyes from drying out when he hit Mach 1.

The name "Peek" says to me that I can look at things, but not actually do anything. This appears to align with the functionality.

@LoganAdams: I just read the entire plot synopsis.

Linden Lab just needs to implement totems.
