Yes, because if this happened in any other country you guys would have none of it and totally overthrow the government. But we Americans, we are just a bunch of pussies.

Before the Model S, purchasing an electric car would mean that you are sacrificing performance, luxury, styling, and range for a clean, efficient, electric car. With the Model S, the only sacrifice you make is the range. Everything else is

Yep, I think we crossed that line with the release of Intel's Core2Duo line of processors. My 2010 MBA actually uses the C2D 2.13ghz, 4GB ram, and a 256GB SSD and it performs perfectly fine for 99% of my uses. Only time I feel bogged d

The big difference between the two is that Glass is powered 100% by voice, Android is powered primarily by touch. I am sure that by the time Google starts rolling this out to the mass market in other countries, they will have those problems
