Ditto. I was excited until I realized it was just anti-consumerist bulls**t. Had my wallet out and everything.

I saw the article and was hoping it would be a guide on how to get deals on last year's models of gadgets. It's just a website for normally affluent white-people patting themselves on the back for doing what lower income folks have been doing forever.You know why my NES still works like the day I bought it? Because I was a poor kid and had to make that s**t last!

i buy old laptops ($100) and put a small version of linux (wattos) on them and use them as netbooks. my grandmother uses one for her email and browser. perfect use.

Funny, but I hear there are people who can actually use an abacus faster than a calculator.

I'm resurrecting my 1989 SAAB 900 SPG [again], (having done so with an engine and transmission overhaul in March of 2000, total cost was $9200); now with a badly needed paint job, miscellaneous minor mechanical work and interior renovation, but all with a twist: making it more fuel efficient. It now has more than 250K miles on it (don't know for sure because the ODO broke years ago).On average, I have gotten about 21 MPG under average conditions over the years. A couple of years ago, I began experimenting with water injection, and in it's present form, I get about a 10 percent increase in fuel mileage, just by spraying water into the inlet air duct downstream of the throttle valve. You can see my blog about my experiences at <a class="user" href="http://H2OSaab.com">http://H2OSaab.com</a> . Another fuel saving tweak I have yet to do anything with is add an HHO system. I will be blogging that at <a class="user" href="http://HHOSaab.com.">http://HHOSaab.com.</a>I figured my last renovation cost me $85 per month over the past 9 years. Even if you amortized it over 3 years, it would be a principal payment of only about $240 or so. That's a heck of a lot better than a new car alternative. All in all, it has only left me on the side of the road twice since I've had it (once just recently when the fuel computer took a dump). The present renovation should cost me less than $3000, so if it even lasts another 5 years, I'll be doing even better.
