    Is it possible to design an Americans "Peoples Car" ie 9K or under?

    Without all of the safety standards stuff it would be feasible to sell a brand new car in the Hyundai Accent category for below $9000 msrp. Being allowed to skip on all of the required safety tech will probably not happen however.

    Obama admin. issues 5.5M work permits to non-citizens

    A typical middle class person could do the job of the typical 1%er. You could give an uneducated illegal a suit, a Bentley, and as long as he could speak English he could do any 1%er's job.

    Xbox One - Buy now or wait?

    Forza 5? Forza Horizon 2? Titanfall? Halo MCC? Killer Instinct? Sunset Overdrive? Have you been under a rock for the past year? There's only one obvious fanboy in this thread. :rolleyes:

    Dedicated PhysX vs no PhysX question?

    The optimal setup is to disable PhysX in games that support it.

    Xbox One - Buy now or wait?

    Of course it would eventually be cheaper if you wait longer but you are also spending that time waiting not playing games you could have been playing.

    How future proof are the current Android flagship phones?

    We hit a huge diminishing returns point a while back. Pretty much any phone from the Nexus 4 era or newer is going to last a long time. A flagship one from today will probably be useful until the battery dies.

    Should you be compensated for the GTX 970 issues and spec changes?

    If someone bought a car advertised with a V8 engine and then got home and saw it had a V6 under the hood you better believe they'd be pissed even if it was just as fast as advertised.

    Ecoboost Mustang

    Off the top of my the Accord has a nicer interior, a smoother and quieter ride, it retains value better, and you can give it wide open throttle every single day and it would still need maintenance less often than a leisurely driven Mustang. Those are the primary reasons I would choose an Accord...

    Ecoboost Mustang

    Mustang fanboy spotted. The Accord V6 does a lot of things better than a Mustang. Quarter mile isn't the only metric that determines a car's value.

    Ecoboost Mustang

    You're reaching pretty far to suggest that a car has to be RWD to be fun to drive. If all else is exactly the same sure RWD is better but it is hardly the deciding factor.

    I'd go with AMD due to better driver support.

    Android Phone with Camera as good as iPhone 6 (autofocus speed, shutter speed, etc.)

    It has been mentioned quite a few times already but Note 4 is definitely as good as the iPhone 6/6+ camera in every way.

    Another Corvette thread...

    It is completely irrelevant to the reason why people choose manual over automatic that the automatic could be faster in some circumstances. People choose manual because it is a more engaging drive; you have more control of the car and it is more fun. To go with your PC analogy using an...

    Does the PS4 browser have any limitations? Could you watch TV show websites through?

    Xbox One also lacks flash. It boggles my mind that the latest and greatest consoles don't have a flash capable browser. The Dreamcast and Wii both had flash capable browsers.

    R9 270x better than Consoles in hard to run games?

    Different architecture is not why consoles perform better than PC, it is the lack of significant overhead from the OS. Running games in Windows will always massively cripple what kind of real world performance you will get out of hardware. Things like Mantle are a nice start but they still do...

    Charging all day bad for battery?

    Wow, no it won't. Stop perpetuating myths that don't relate to modern battery technology. There is no tangible drawback from leaving your phone on charge the entire time you aren't using it. The phone's battery capacity will still be within the range that would be considered normal for the age...

    Nintendo 2ds or 3ds for six year old?

    A 6 year old would be much more likely to break a 3DS due to the hinge. I vote for 2DS for that reason alone.

    Hybrid/electric owners ... has the low(er) price of oil caused you 2nd thoughts about

    I don't think a Prius or Insight could get up to 85mph or at least there isn't a road long enough in the US for them to do so :D
