  1. Re:What are the specs? on Real 'Akira' Motorcycle · · Score: 1

    By looks it doesn't look like it handle very well. It's built low like a cruiser which doesn't leave much lean clearance. Having your legs out in front doesn't help you manage your weight well either. There is a reason race bikes are built high with your legs positioned back. It would be waay cool to own for the street but I think I'll still be using the Gixxer on the track ;)

    Hey that reminds me... I'm outta coasters

  3. Re:The biggest missing feauture is... on Next Generation Mail Clients Reviewed · · Score: 1

    This is sort of like "allowing only users on your buddy list" to contact you. I think it's a wonderful idea. Taking that a bit further, It seems as if someone should look at maybe a new "killer app" that encompasses the idea of instant messaging and email. For me at least, the line has become pretty obscure when not dealing with attachments. I use naim which is constantly running on a server and queue messages to people who are offline. This works for shorter messages (there are obvious inconvinences with page long messages) like sending links out to your buddies.

    Fruit for thought...

    I believe mars is a smaller planet. It's the 4th one from the left not counting the big firey object.

    Hey, at least she was able to patch together the "ht" and "ml" in the link you posted ;)

  6. Re:Calculus Books on Ripoff 101: Gouging Students for Textbooks · · Score: 1

    Yeah, I'm returning to finish my undergrad after a 9 year "break" They want me to buy a $130 calculus book. Strangely enough, the book I have from 10 years ago have the same formulas... go figure.. The graphics on the cover seem to be updated though
