Internal combustion charts
Ferrari 575M Maranello (not fastest but don't have the booklet) - 4.0 Seconds
Fastest Porsche : 911 Turbo (480hp/40torque) - 3.7 seconds on manual / 3.4 seconds on Tiptronic S.
Fastest BMW : M6 Coupe (500hp/383torque) - 4.5 Seconds
Fastest Lexus : GS450H (340hp/torquenotlisted) - 5.2 seconds
*All figures taken from respective manufacturer's product catalogs that were handed out at the Manhattan 2007 Car Show on April 6th.
0 - 60 in 3.1 seconds for an electric car is pretty damn impressive.
My monitor came with a "VISTA READY!" sticker on it. But what if I wanted to use my monitor with another operating system? Would it not be "Windows XP ready"? Would my monitor refuse to display anything if I suddenly used it with any other operating system?
These "certified by Windows" logo (WHQL) things are total buckwheat. They are absolutely worthless.
That chart simply looks like a demographic on the amount of users currently using those ISPs.
As with spyware, it makes sense of course that the biggest population will be hit the hardest. That's effectively why alternative operating systems are impenetrable to virii and other nasty things. They aren't looked at by the majority of the 'bad people' out there.:P

Apparently some group isn't 'flexing their muscle' as you so put it but probably spreading their initals in the form of taking down DNS servers corresponding with their team name.
Funny, I didn't know that Wallace and Gromit: Curse of the Were Rabbitway featured any CG. It seemed like it was claymation to me. Just shows how realistic CG gets nowadays.
