- diggenerate, on 09/30/2008, -0/+50Now you know why printer ink is about $9,000 a gallon.
- Cararan, on 09/29/2008, -4/+49Don't worry, If HP fails we will bail them out to buy him 3 more yachts.
- ScottMcIntyre, on 09/29/2008, -1/+36It looks spectacular- it has 26,000 square feet of sails. The photos of it in San Francisco Bay show just how awesome it is. There's a flotilla of other tiny boats around it just to see it sail! Sweet ;-)
- badwithcomputer, on 09/29/2008, -2/+30he's compensating for something.
- BeShirtHappy, on 09/29/2008, -2/+26It's nice to see that not everyone is effected by the downward spiraling economy.
- duder83, on 09/29/2008, -4/+26that's cute. i bet this will help cut down on foreign oil dependance.
- Jookly, on 09/29/2008, -1/+22that picture of the controls is awesome. Looks like the interior of something unreal,.
- cledford, on 09/29/2008, -13/+33Someone is getting rich at others expense.
- inactive, on 09/29/2008, -2/+19Star Trek meets Pirates of the Caribbean? That's sweet, but complete overkill.
- inactive, on 09/29/2008, -1/+17So, where's my invitation?
- inactive, on 09/29/2008, -2/+18Pretty awesome...go America!

- steve9924, on 09/30/2008, -1/+16glad I could contribute to that buying ink.
- spikyvashy, on 09/30/2008, -1/+16don't get me started on the ink cartrdige bs. Printer costs 100-120 Cartridge costs 20-50 bucks and lasts like 1 month if your lucky.
- KCLorelei, on 09/29/2008, -1/+15Talk about your traffic jam! We were out on the Bay this weekend and have NEVER seen so many boats flocking to the water. We were just happy to get out alive.
- n1eb, on 09/30/2008, -0/+13"Perkins' yacht is the largest privately-owned boat in the world."
I just wanted to correct this so people don't get the wrong information. It's the largest sailing yacht in the world, but not the worlds largest privately owned yacht when you include motoryachts, not even close. - veronica1, on 09/30/2008, -0/+12If I could afford it, I would by one. Jealousy will get you no where.
- sundamole, on 09/29/2008, -4/+15Wow! That's an awesome Yacht
- inactive, on 09/29/2008, -1/+12I heard that yachts are terrible investments. The yearly maintenance on them alone is more than an avg salary.
- inactive, on 09/29/2008, -4/+14brb I have to go get in line for gas. Oh and let me check on my 401k, wait what 401k? ***** this guys boat.
- Diggopolis, on 09/30/2008, -0/+9That is one cool yacht, I wonder if he bought it on credit or paid cash?
- martalli, on 09/30/2008, -0/+7You could sail around the world on a tank of gas.
- scaaven2, on 09/30/2008, -0/+7$168 million

- Coultrain, on 12/25/2008, -1/+8I want one!!!
- veriix, on 09/30/2008, -0/+7thats over 9000!!!!!
...with tax... - rodwambold, on 09/29/2008, -2/+8Really cool the sail dwarf all the others... the Star Trek command center is really nice.
Ok, it is a good it is a good example of the limitless possibilities that are around us. Nice really nice. - inactive, on 09/29/2008, -4/+9Geez, that is an amazing yacht!!
- zomgflamer, on 09/30/2008, -1/+6 I've decided to live on a fishing boat since I have zero motivation to work anymore or continue with school. Especially in this *****.
All i need is this laptop and leech wireless.
Internet while I fish, not too bad. And just consume enough mercury to kill me overtime before i get bored too. Perfect! - inactive, on 12/07/2008, -0/+5Beat me to it.
- inactive, on 09/29/2008, -5/+10If his name isn't Hewlett or Packard or he's isn't actual working engineer he's just another corporate sponge.
- reallytempting2, on 09/29/2008, -2/+7Nice ... I've been looking for one of those, I wonder if his selling?
- Homerr, on 09/30/2008, -1/+6Completely crappy picture quality - HP printer?
- BoneStamp, on 09/30/2008, -0/+5It does have a ton of automated sails, so hopefully the fuel consumption is minimized. I'm sure the engine still runs as a power supply though.
- nixniente, on 09/30/2008, -0/+5You're probably right.
Nonetheless, if I were a guy, and God gave me the choice to be either filthy, stinking rich, with a tiny dick, or have a big dick, and poverty, I'd take the money and the little dick. - DigSomeMore, on 09/29/2008, -3/+8That is pretty awesome.
- MensFitness, on 09/30/2008, -0/+4Wow, the control room looks like something out of Star Trek.
- inactive, on 09/30/2008, -2/+6he just proved he has the tiniest dick in the world--way to go!
- BoneStamp, on 09/30/2008, -0/+4It's called burying the comment... and it works with every browser.
- inactive, on 09/30/2008, -0/+4I bet he has a big Dingy to match
- inactive, on 09/30/2008, -0/+4Very impressive! Anyone wanna join for a ride? :)
- inactive, on 09/29/2008, -3/+7so it's big
- toetagger, on 09/30/2008, -0/+3Real sailors would want nothing to do with that monstrosity. I'll take one of these over that any day:
http://www.valiantsailboats.com/mac/photos50.php - sadchild, on 09/30/2008, -2/+5where's a glacier when you need one?
- inactive, on 09/30/2008, -1/+4Its a good news for me..
- BoneStamp, on 09/30/2008, -0/+3That's part of it. Also notice how high-tech it is... there are no ropes to pull for those sails.
- paulieslim, on 09/30/2008, -1/+4And they say guys who drive sports cars have size issues..
- BoneStamp, on 09/30/2008, -0/+3Just the middle class. When the credit market freezes up again (like it did on the 15th - saved by the announcement of the bailout), then we're going to have trouble renewing our mortgages and getting a car loan. It doesn't matter what your credit score is, if there is NO money to lend then you can't get a loan.
- yoda17, on 09/30/2008, -1/+4FAIL
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octopus_(yacht) - veriix, on 09/30/2008, -0/+3Is there any other way to get rich?
