    This is amazing. This crazy italian guy spent 15 years making a scale replica of a Ferrari 312. So what? Well, the completely home-made 12-cylinder engine actually runs, and the transmission works too (including reverse)! The guages and lights all work too! The car looks like it's about 5 feet long. http://www.johnegerton.co.uk/cmcc/ferrari312.ram "...the staggering layers of obscenity in your statement make it a work of art on so many levels." - Jason Jystad, 10/26/2001

      Unfortunately, I do not have RealPlayer installed, because I really hate it. Bad UI, annoying ads. Regards Thomas Finally with Sonork id: 100.10453 Thömmi

        I don't like it either, but they install it by default here at work. It's really too bad the movie isn't available in another format. The detail on this model is simply amazing. The fact that the motor actually runs (and sounds like a Ferrari) just adds to it.

              RealPlayer is one of several viruses that, if Nortons removed them automatically and stopped them taking over your system, I would buy it. Bonzai Buddy is the other one.

                  And so for me. Although I always try to use third-party software, I realize that I am using more and more software by MS. I started Windows programming with Borland C, now I develop with Visual Studio. At the beginning of the Internet hype I used RealPlayer, now I prefer Windows Media Player, and last but not least once there was a time I swore in Netscape Navigator... guess which browser I am currently using to edit this posting...

It acts like a salesman with it's foot in the door. That sort of thing just p*sses people off. I do have it installed though, to watch some .ra files because I don't know of any alternatives. The tiny car is pretty wild. The interviewer asked if it would really drive and the guy said that it would if they could find a small enough driver. He should have built the car big enough so that he could drive it -- all that work (15 years!!) and he can't even take it out for a spin.

                            WMP 8 is great and is, IMHO much better than qt5 - I hate the whole thing. The way the carriage buttons always look disabled, the volume control, the stupid menu system etc. In fact, QuickTIme is in the UI hall of shame on some webstie. One thing I do prefer is that they always have the latest trailer etc. (see Star Wars EpII etc). -- Andrew.
