I have to agree that this was an excelent article.
But the gist of the article was essentialy what everybody knows... Move more air with less blades and less RPM and you have a better fan.
I do not mean to down play all the valuable equations and (the very handy) conversion tables, but didn't this article say what we already knew just in an engineers terms?
Absolutly Right... If lucas is so much of a tight ass about his movie than the hell with him. I personally saw it 4 times and I am not a typical "star wars" fanatic. So I figure lucas has at least $12 of my money already. The other issue with this whole DVD copying thing is the same with software... Personally if I use a piece of software that I deem to be an everyday application (VMware) you purchase it. The same holds true with DVD... You make the choice to pay for the movie because you like it and the developer or producer deserves the money for making such a great product. For that reason the DVD industry shouldn't do anything to stop the DVD burning... It not efficient... and most people 99.9% will pay for the darn thing anyway. And about the bootlegs of Episode 1 lucas is pissed about... If he would just release the damn thing on DVD he would have $25 more of my money... bootleg or not... So basically, George Lucas needs to make the next two episodes, die, and goto hell.
