My Economist subscription ran out in December and I've since been receiving the Financial Times. Not only is the publication daily, but it offers much better analysis and online features than the Economist.
Not to mention that students receive a rather handsome discount.
After reading the book I felt that Auletta had a relatively neutral stance. At times it felt as though he was laying the entire blame on Microsoft and then later, he'd make it seem as though the Judge was fooled by Boise's charisma.
Maybe my memory is failing me (I read the book prior to summer) but I found the book to be very non-biased.
A Friend and I did the same thing, except we had rules.
#1 - Driver must be present
#2 - Driver must have window to see out of
#3 - Game is over once driver falls out of car, or car has no pieces left attached to the body.
#4 - Only repairs which could be done during the match would be to put wheels back on
The secret to winning is to build a car made entirely out of those flat pieces. With a car constructed like this, you have a good chance of winning. Especially since the one I made could be dropped at an easy 4 feet up and only lose it's wheels.
Alternatively, if you wanted to cheat, the answer is superglue.

What could happens if the robots get a hold of these weapons?
I'd be worried if I were Kobe Bryant.
These robots are neat as long as they don't turn against their controllers. I'm reminded by the robots from Itchy and Scratchy Land on the Simpsons.
but why pay for something when you can download it for free?
Especially when the money is going to Microsoft. No thank you.
now we can only hope Outlook follows shortly.
In 10 years, preview should be mandatory.

I have a different viewpoint.
