  1. Good idea but ultimately useless on Which CPU Is Tops in Price/Performance? · · Score: 1

    Looking at the charts basically says one thing - go for the cheapest processor if you want the most 'bang' for your buck.

    Makes sense seeing how performance increases incrementally as you go up the different proc models. I bet that if you did a study for framerates/cost for graphics cards you would see a similar trend.

    I guess bang/buck is not really as important as I would have though.

  2. What about stuck brake? on A Car With A Mind Of Its Own · · Score: 1

    My car recently developed a problem with the brake booster. If i pressed on the brake pedal and lifted my foot off the pedal, the brake would not release and would still be in the same position. The only way to get it to release was to push it in all the way - then there would be a 'whoosh' sound as the release valve would finally open. I ended up driving on the highway using a combination of downshifting and using the hand brake driving at 40mph. Surprisingly your hand brake has nowhere near the braking power of the regular brake, so my option was to come to a complete stop i.e. push brake, pull over to try and release brake pedal then get going again, or to brake very slowly using the hand brake. It sucked but i guess better than having the accelerator jammed!
