I've watched the original Top Gear (aswell as Xtra), the jokes were lame and even (I couldn't believe it) Clarkson sucked. I believe Motoring shows take a tremendous amount of time to be entertaining, and the presentators learn as they go along, it took Clarkson ages to be funny and James May sucked, its only in the last 2 seasons that he started showing his true colors and in this season he Reallly impressed me with the way hes changed (he became sharper & more witty). These shows take time, I mean Xzibit was a great Tv Host, but if you notice his jokes weren't funny at all and that had to do with the lack of experience. He was only funny when he tried to be Ghetto (people laughing at him).

All Motoring shows require a tremendous amount of effort to be done in an entertaining manner, which is why Fifth Gear (which has more seasons than top gear and which has 2 or 3 presentators from Original Top Gear and Top Gear Xtra [ the girl for instance]) stopped trying to be funny and became more technical (partly why the show survived, when there is such a good show like Top Gear UK).

Clarkson has been on Tv for a long time, in Top gear Xtra his jokes were so Lame! But now he leaves you in tears with his jokes.

You cannot compare any motoring show that just started with Top Gear. Top gear has been around for a long time and the Big 3 are Big, because of their experience. Even Hammond who was experienced wasn't getting a lot of laughs (although he was better than Clarkson at the time he first joined).

Give these shows a chance, they always start like this, in the end they will get more experienced, presentators will change & the presentators will eventually be on par with the seasoned UK ones.

The US one will be Just as Bad unless its somebody with 10 years experience in Hosting popular shows, these type of programs will always start out as lame and akward.

My advice is watch them for the cars now, and reap the benefits later. These type of shows age like wine, they are better as the years go by.

Sorry about the long post, doubt if anyone will bother read it and sorry about bad english ( taking a break from studying Algorithms so I'm a bit woozy).
Anyhow give these programs time!
Advantages of Electric over Internal Combustion.
Instant Torque.
Less energy consumed.
Pollution restricted to 1 area ( no smog in ur front yard).

Does anybody got a Electric Conversion kit that works like this?
Vista is ok and its not disappointing.
Its Crash Friendlier, especially when Aero is on.
Its hardware intensive, but nearly all new OS's demand higher requirements, imagine if nobody wanted to Upgrade their hardware...we'd be using 8 bit cpus with 512kb memory.

No operating system is perfect, not even Mac.
I've had experience with a Mac and it was great, although i couldn't open every file with it and lack of Command promt was a bit scary.

I just prefar Vista to any other OS, the others are just not my style.

Can't explain it, with Vista I have the notion that I can do anything with it, that any other OS either takes too much to do or cannot do.

I mean I've used Novell Linux, and its a hassle.
I've used Mac and compatibility was an issue, so was the fact that the person couldn't upgrade, without buying a new Mac ( i love upgrading to save money).

I dont think Vista was disappointing, although Windows Millenium was the WORST OS ever.
Easy.

I have a south korean player.. the Software fucked for me
Everyting still working thou...but i hardly know waht i can do with it..apart from play music and viddys
This is what happens when you mix black people with white people, everyone gets all fucken stupid..sayings thats racist, if they wanted to be racist they would have displayed the black guy as a Porch Monkey or 2 dead black men with guns and 2 white men shaking their hands....
Or the better still black guy dressed as a monkey and a white guy dressed up as super man..
But I can tell you that is Not Racist, let me tell you whats racist a black man stealing from a white guy cos apperenlt ." em honkeys are filthy rich", want another one? A black fat woman with an attitude like she somebody and using her Blackness to get her way.. that my friend is racist..but does anyone complain?? No, but someone sees a harmless little advert like that?.. thats racist, and that is typical American, white people shouting black and white unite and Tupac blaring out lyrics saying "black power".. THAT is not racism that is stupidity, diversity is stupidity, multiculturism is a joke or else you wouldn't see the majority 5th Generation African Americans gang banging, crack dealing, while only the minority are profesionals... that is why America should not have a Jewish Goverment, because the Jews know multiculturism is self-destructive, and this is why they are killing so many Muslims in the middle east, and so many paletinians who deserve to have their land not taken away by those infiltrative rats...
Go ahead America, your country is a time-bomb waiting to explode and calling billboards like this "Racist" is the cherry on the icing.
Goodluck.
John Doe your words are true, I'd want to know if it is completely harmless to the already fucked up environment.
Before they launch it globaly.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm heading to university next year, and I've purchased a MacBook. I'm also taking my four year old desktop, just in case I'm left with no computers when the MacBook is being repaired or whatnot. With only two USB ports on a MacBook, I want a Bluetooth mouse. Budget is about $100, and of course, it needs OS X support. Thanks for the help!"
