  9. Re:Somebody pinch me! on Vonage to Produce a WiFi Phone · · Score: 1

    considering that voip is really popular in the PC to PC calls, is gaining ground in PC to land line calls, and is also starting to emerge as a true phone to phone technology; It seems to me that applying viop to wireless/cellphone concept is the next logical evolution of this technology

    If George Lucas cant keep Star Wars: Episode III under wraps, Then nothing can be truely hidden.. Including spy sat's.

  12. who really wins here.. on Intel to Spend $2B To Stay In The Game · · Score: 1

    In my dealings with Intel, It has alwas seemd to me that they are not really concered with input from the public. In the past and even today, they still come off as a very arrogant company. AMD being the underdog has always had to try harder, innovate and listen to public reaction. I sure hope this move of AMD to the top does not result in the arrogant traits that the top dogs usually acquire. I also hope that Intel learns a lesson or 2 from this. As the processor wars continue; we as consumers .. WIN!!

  13. Re:Where's the spider? on High Speed Steam Powered Car · · Score: 1

    i'm sure the Transportation department would have a field day with this one.. Imagine all the safty features that they would want. i'm sure the flame shooting cannons would have to go.

  14. mmmmmmm steam.. on High Speed Steam Powered Car · · Score: 1, Interesting

    I dont understand why steam has such an archaic stigma attached to it...
    Diesel dates to the late 1800's and Electric powered cars date back further than that. Steam power was not developed with the view toward automobile production as much as other technologies.

    Stanley Steamer broke the standing land speed record in 1906 with a steam powered car..

    If we can get the same or more power out of a steam powered car, with better gas mileage.. then i'm up for it. Even if it is "old" technology.
