Another thing to remember is that these planes don't get pit stops. They each get one rocket per heat. That means they don't run the engine 100% of the time.
In fact, acceleration control will be entirely based on dithering the throttle, to give controlled acceleration, while maintaining control of the plane and fuel supply.
So even if there was smoke, it'd be in little puffs where the racers are pulsing their engines.
Only a sucker would give in to the man, and not replace IE with Firefox on his company laptop.
USB thumb drives are pretty cheap and getting cheaper. Wally World sells 32Meg sticks next to the M&M's
My suggestion is to simply acquire one of these wonderfully useful devices (if you don't already have one) and visit portableapps.com. There is a plethora of applications that you can install on your stick (including Firefox) and use on any machine into which you can plug it (including your company laptop).
Well, We've seen what programs look like "through Neo's eyes," (i.e. Seraph) and Trinity didn't look like a program when he extracted the bullet. But then... that was inside the "inner Matrix".

They have Doom III listed for release on 7/31/03...
Anyone else already paid for their copy?
