  1. the HTPC...people on here could help... but building it....not sure, unless someone else is building one and wants' to provide some pictures. good times with family , friends , and as a late present, great primary results.
  2. well... they should have a v6 comparo and a 4cylinder w/ the 6speed comparo when it comes out. don't compare the 4 with the 4 auto, unless it's price alone.
  3. if the grill was that big, they'd almost have to re engineer how the hood fits on the front...right?
  4. well to me it seemed like it would keep things in memory that had been closed for along time... so if you open up ~20 tabs with something... alot of that ram usage wouldn't go away until you closed FF, I have 1Gb of ram and over a day if i don't close it , it can use 100Mb easily.
  5. and i thought some were prone to leaking...maybe i'm wrong?
  6. interestingly bland though.
  7. noted: the HP is +4 and the torque is -1 ...that's kinda sad, assuming the same peak rpms. edit- says the engine was fitted with oil squirters... that should've brought the compression up a little. this is just pre-spec griping.
  8. give it more pronounced fender flares and i think it looks quite dodge-ish... nothing against dodge though.
  9. much more distinctive than the competition...the interior looks on par, if not nicer than some looks into a yaris/fit/versa I've seen first hand. why didn't they have time to make the engine DI? other than it is a "daewoo" engine...right?
  10. the 3.7L will beat 90% of the ~3.5L's now... wonder how powerful the DI/turboed version will be.... the pics of it look good. not as stunning as the cts though
  11. not thinking it's the 2mode vue? with a city rating of 26? hehe
  12. hopefully the new engine will nicer...~15% power increase?... hey, even a 5-speed in this segment would be nicer than the 4.

    cobalt SS

    will we see "better" mileage from the '08 SS than the '07 SS/SC? just curious...
  14. saw an 08 lacross today...not a super... it did look a little odd from just the front... but it does look better than the oval grill.
  15. will this cause less 20's (and bigger) being sold ... i hope so!!!

    11th Hour

    here's to everyone that's served in the military.
  17. that plant should strike... oh wait... could they? companies shouldn't place blame on anything specific, unless they wanted to say because it's a brand new model...
  18. center is too busy, too many displays... the gauges don't fit the rest of the dash. otherwise not great, but not horrible either.

  20. hehe. i think i've seen this picture or one like it before. still cool kinda reminds me of anime...girl robots that transform into things like this.
  21. I like it alot too, it'd be cool to see an old ~30's grill on it, the lower half extended into the bumper.

    Hi. Welcome. where you from?
  23. I have great interest in space/NASA, have since I was smaller.ah, "Moore's law" don't forget efficiency now a days... with video cards drawing more power than pc's ~6 years ago and 1W processors chugging at 500mhz for mobile platforms, the tech is pushing the limits in both directions. and the 90nm tech going to 65nm to 45 nm NASA should have pushed the ...x-31 (i think) ahead instead of scrapping it. faster, cheaper, safer flights into space would have done great things. but no, we had the Columbia disaster, and the mars bound replacement is, essentially, a redux of the saturn V. "Local" space is going commercial faster than ever, and NASA can profit from it, if they have the right vehicles...
  24. my friends and i had a discussion about this... sadly electric generators aren't very efficient in small pakages... but if you could link up lots of bikes to say..screw gears to turn a bigger generator, it could be useful, ideas were "flying" but it just wouldn't scale very well.
