They do, it's called the Acura NSX. Ok so they don't have a CVT, perhaps the RS6 will have your CVT (this depends on your definition of sleek aerodynamics).
Weren't all the explorers motivated my something other than just exploring for the sake of exploration? Addmitedly my analysis is Euro-centric, but most were looking for a cheap way to import the valuable goods from the east, and later looking for valuable goods from the Americas.
I think Homeworld is just too new, the games listed are pretty dang old, since these guys were working on what made them innovators when games like Homeworld were released. Don't worry the next generation of innovators will likely cite homeworld as an influence.
I do the table top mini games (Warhammer, Chronopia etc) and the patience required to paint and get all the little dudes ready for battle has really improved my concentration and fine motor skills.
I always knew he was a smart guy, glad to see he's practical like so few very smart individuals. Considering he made the company what it was, they credited him with parts of SPARC, solars, and Java, I think he probably deserved not to have his wealth disappear with the market's fortunes.
Huh, the first time, I noticed it I figured it was something explicit, and later when I saw the logos in an uncut video, I assumed that it was something to do with them not wanting to give free promotion to brands that didn't pay for it, Viacom being cheap and all. It never crossed my mind that they would be sued by the IP owners for use of their trademarks, but that does make the most sense.
Actually I think it was Westinghouse that raped Tesla's work. By the time electricity was fully commercialized (using Tesla's AC), Edison was headed to Hollywood to work on sequencing sound and light in a movie.
When I worked at walmart there was always a crayon by the registers, one day I cracked a joke about coloring time when business was slow. I was told that the store recipts had about 3 inches of space so you could use the crayon to take a rubbing of the card numbers and letters to prove that the physical card was in the possestion of the store at the time of purchase. I've seen a few places that still use the old imprited recipts all the time but they are pretty rare.
One of the big biotechs (was it Genentech?) figured out that the AltiVec Engine is ideal for sequencing DNA after they figured out how to write the software to take advantage of its features. They are one of the big customers of the Xserve, I think their order was big enough to cover the development costs of the system, the rest are gravy for Apple.

I liked the billboards in Gran Turismo, they are there in the real races, why not put them in the game? I still wonder if they got paid to include them in the first one, or just used the names, under permission, for the realistic feel. I know Subaru dealers were surprised by the demand for the WRX that GT brought.

XBoxes are still sold at a loss (remember that retailers do make a profit on those units figure MS gets less than $150 per X-box). I'd guess that the cost of a unit is around $200, it was $300+ when introduced. The whole program, including games sales (which are quite profitable) generated almost $1 billion in losses for MS this year (ending in June). Many consoles are sold at a loss initially, since the manufacturer knows that eating a few months of losses might give them a year of profits on the back end, when a better console might still be sold, so they tend to pack the best stuff they think they can resonably get away with at the time.
I guess I'm showing my age and lack of a tv, Vivaldi is the only one I had heard, sorry about that. I'll have to check out the other one, it looks like anther poster referenced the CD for sale. I still think the shadows dancing in front of a fireplace is one of the better romantic ads on TV that and the old Levi's ad with the couple in the elevator where they see their potential life together on the ride up.
It's from Vivaldi's, The Four Seasons, and the rest of it is quite excellent and also used for commercials/other elevator type music. Give it a listent and I doubt that will be the only part you recognise.
Thank you, it's nice to see there are a few others who appreciate the NY Times for giving their entire paper for free.

If the future were in low powered chips transmeta's chart would go the other way. Did you buy a laptop powered by one? You might be able to get away with a just a heatsink. Certainly a low powered and very quiet fan would work. There is so little demand for a chip that is designed around power consumption rather than speed that the only market for this and the eden is in set top boxes and other low end applications.
I think that is what these companies are trying to develop. The big problem is that the white ones are currently pretty pricy, once you start talking groups even compared to a florecent. I've seen some pretty interesting track lighting LED arrays, that were great for cheap mood lighting. It was on a boat, in a small room, but it looked like was lit enough for reading, and the wall coloring (beige with lots of dark wood) made gave it a warmer feel than most LEDs have.

I don't know about the 5 times as efficient, espeically if we add the drive line losses back in to the hydrogen powered car, the main advantage I've heard of is that it is now worth the very expensive or fragile pollution contol technology that would be too costly or break regularly on a moving car. All the environmentalists better not kid themselves about where the hycdrogen is coming from, it isn't the ideal clean renewable water based stuff yet, it's going to be cracked off of coal and natural gas for many decades to come, but it will allow many better methods of centralizing the dirty combustion which means we get one superfund site rather than a bunch of nasty cities with smog.
I hate those too, but they are the only ones that I can actually see the green in the green light. Other ones look white. Red and Yellow are largely unchanged. What I dislike about them is that you can't see them as you are approaching until you get quite close. Are they better when the sun is in your eyes or shining directly on them? I've always wondered why they were used.
LEDs are excellent spot lights, but are much worse than either incandecents or florecents at room flooding light that most light fixtures are used for. If you wanted a work light or a flash light LEDs are better, but more expensive. Flashlights are especially good since less power usage means smaller lighter batteries are more likely to work when the lights go out, even if you forget about them for years. I think LEDs would be ideal in an array for projectors. In that case the heat savings on your LCD panel would be the key advantage.
The trick is finding a division III school, so you play other engineers and liberal arts majors who are there for the education, not the sports. It's a blast. Also since there aren't any scholarships, you have the chance to try some of the less known sports.

Yeah and if my fantasy world is filled with cushy wealth, "ignorance is bliss." Why would I care that I wasn't in the real world?
Before I start rioting in the streets, I need to know, how many VW Beetles is this thing? Do I really need to be worried?
So that is the fountain of youth, I wonder why it only works three quarters of the time.

Good gravy, 1942 was hard enough, even with cheat codes that huge bomber on level 70 or so was unbeatable for me.
