                              Well, that's one way to start the honeymoon off with a bang.

                                I hope it was a loooong ceremony, cause that was a short honeymoon!

                                  It's related to IT but we don't have an IT News Thread.

                                  This is pretty amazing but how fast would this be able to write?

                                    In other words, tape will remain relevant for a long time to come.

                                      No doubt about that. IIRC it isn't a volatile media and can last decades in controlled storage.

                                            Now that is a sleek looking car. I'd be interested into looking into it if it hit production.
