E39 sorry
Trivia - BMW built an M5 Tourer once before, for a board member.
Definitely not an April Fools (if anyone's still doubting this); I work for a major retailer and we got one as well, objecting to our maroon design. So, if you are vaguely involved with mobile phones and your chosen base colour contains red Deutsche Telekom are on to you!

Yeah, we've got it at £79.99 with the unlimited data package on T-Mobile

Having played with one at 3GSM in Barcelona, it's a very very nice handset. Worth mentioning that most of the Nokia execs I was chatting to were using it, with a smattering opting for the E90 communicator instead.
Why have Alfa started making the Sagaris?
"The purpose of an anechoic chamber is to filter out any noise not created by the unit itself, I've been in two my whole life."

Like the boy in the bubble?

I've been waiting for this phone since it was the P1000, then the hermione, and then the p990. And I'm still waiting, and still getting it because frankly it's the only touchscreen phone with wifi and a good camera, even 12 months after it was rumoured. Oh, except for the SPV M600 (HTC thingy, called all sorts worldwide), but I'd chew my own balls off before I used a MS phone.

I do like the screen on the N80 though.
"No it can't drift. It is physically impossible for a FWD (or AWD) car to truly drift. Sure it can get sideways with the handbrake and pull itself straight with the front wheels, but you need to be able to control and hold your slip angle. Something that is only possible in a RWD car"

So, you've never heard of lift-off oversteer? True, "drifting" (if you define it as power-sliding, using the throttle for steering) is impossible in a FWD car, but AWD cars can do it (see for example, umm, every WRC car since the Quattro?), and by no means do you need the handbrake to get the back end out.

While you make out it's all very complicated and people can email you for a full explanation, you're really just pulling 'facts' out of your arse.
10.5 is for both PPC and x86.

In fact, it will be the first OSX version to be available as a retail x86 product as opposed to coming pre-installed.

My number one fact to use on Mac-doubters is this; 10.4 made my 867Mhz G4 PB faster than it was under 10.3 - compare that to Windows..
Props on the Lieutenant Dan quote
Sega Saturn (and Dreamcast, perhaps) - immensely powerful for the day, yet impossible to code for.

Sony Playstation - originally an add-on for the SNES, yet it conquered all before it.

Xbox - a cheap, outdated Celeron with a cheap, outdated graphics card and a bodged PC motherboard

Can you imagine optimising code for what is essentially a 6-CPU PowerPC machine with S-ATA and 32 pixel lines, or whatever the GPU has going for it?

It's all in the gameplay, people.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I commonly need to boot a system from an external disc and take a snapshot of the host system. I also then need to burn a copy of the image to a DVD. While I can do it with two separate external devices, and two power supplies, and two I/O cables, it'd be nice to find a small dual-drive enclosure. It would need to have USB, eSATA, and FireWire. Either slim-line or half-height bay for the optical burner would be fine, and space for either a 2.5- or 3.5-inch hard disc. Any ideas?"
