Pebble Beach Swamped, Calendar Needs to be Split
in Classical Drives, on July 6, 2009
The extravaganza known as Pebble Beach just keeps getting bigger, which would be okay with humble auto writers like me if it didn't continue to push room rates beyond reach. (Yes, the rich are different than you and me.) The latest announcement comes from La Dolce Vita Automobili at Black Hor...
Apricorn Promises to Beef Up 5th Generation iPod Storage
in The Gadgets Weblog, on July 6, 2009
My new iPhone has 32GB of storage space, and I have about 25GB free. My entire music collection only takes up 9GB of space, which is why the 120GB on a 5th Generation iPod Classic just blows my mind.

Daimler SP250 Celebrates 50th Anniversary, Sidney Gets a Treat
in Classical Drives, on July 3, 2009
Walking down Sidney BC's main street recently on a fine sunny day, I spotted a Daimler SP250, known as a "Daimler Dart" until Chrysler threatened legal action. Although SP250s are scarce I remember them primarily because a fellow sports car club member raced one in the same Ontario ...
New Bertone BAT Will Fly High at Concorso Italiano

My Favorite Buick, a Roadmaster at RM's Meadowbrook Auction
in Classical Drives, on June 22, 2009
Of all the vintage Buicks that I admire, perhaps none are as close to my heart as the immediate pre-war Roadmasters. The long hood, sweeping fenders and chrome-bedecked grilles do it for me, especially knowing there's a mellow inline-eight at my command. I drove one only once, during an Onta...

ASUS 与 Disney 联手打造儿童用 NetBook

当前经济衰退中，许多玩具公司避免推出高价产品， Disney 却逆势而行，打算在假期销售旺季来临前推出售价 350 美元的儿童 netBook 。
这款 netBook "Disney Netpal"将于7月底起在美国和加拿大的 Toys "R" US 店铺和 Amazon 销售。

RM Offers Rarely Seen Chrysler Airflow Coupe at Meadow Brook

It's not unusual to spot a Chrysler Airflow (or its DeSoto sibling) at an auction. Normally these would be 4-door sedans, much maligned for their unpopular "streamlined design." Often forgotten is that the Airflow was also available as a 2-door, which makes the appearance of this 19...
