People were laughing at Lee Ioccoca for being on the e-Bike bandwagon about 5-10 years ago. With China an emerging fuel customer, the demand for fuel will never fall, thus prices will be at the $3 and up for a long time.

If Steve Jobs or another revoluntionary billionaire designs a electric or alternative fuel vehicle, people woulda ctually buy and use it (think Minority Report) I mean Apple's ahead of their time with the Ipod right?

don't shoot the dreamer... I am just bored that's all...
 
I'm still waiting for that revolutionary scooter segway contraption invented a few years back to take off.

No, electricity is the only 'alternative' sourse to petrol that is readily available to consumers, and Apple is limited to the exact same battery technology as every automaker and university on earth.

No. MP3 players have been on the market since 1998. The iPod was not released until 3 years later.

Well Apple was ahead of Sony(because they cornered the Walkman industry) and since would never get ahead of Apple in the digtial music arena. Also, they said that Microsoft's Xbox wouldn't be purchased by true gamers - and now look... Hell, I'd start a company and go public with this "stupid idea." right??? (cough google).. but i am lazy and will buy what i can afford..
 
what i love so much about the OP's post is it didn't have any substance whatsoever

in a nutshell this is what the OP said...

"ya know, if we like got better cars and stuff, people would use them"
