Hummer v2 is the H2 H2 is just short for Hummer version. 2. And I hope that you understand that Hummer has nothing to do besides the look with the military grade vehicle M998 HMMWV, and H2 has even less to do with it. H2 is pretty decent vehicle in terms of a city vehicle, but an offroad vehicle it is not. It has very weak front and rear axle and it has the danger of breaking it in a rough terrain where there is alot of pressure pointed at them.
"A sport utility vehicle (SUV) or off-roader is a type of passenger vehicle which combines the load-hauling and passenger-carrying capacity of a large station wagon or minivan with features designed for off-road driving. In more recent years, the term has also grown to encompass vehicles with similar size and style that are marketed as sport utility vehicles, but which do not actually incorporate substantial off-road features." -quoted from Wikipedia
Many these style vehicles has been made popular back in the days of Land Rovers and Jeeps which were designed to be offroad vehicles and then designed to be "sports utility", but then game Range Rover that was basically a Luxury SUV which cost alot of it's offroad abilities compared to Jeep and Land Rover. Modern SUVs are more Luxury style vehicles that are designed on the template of Range Rover but are equipped for more urban driving than offroad.
And if you think the H2 is big, take a look at the 80s version of Chevrolet Suburban nicknamed "street home".
In no means do I say that you can't drive a dirt road with it, but modern SUVs don't have the horsepowers to climb steep hills or rocky terrain.
haha. i hadnt even noticed that, i dont tend to pay much attention to the thread titles when i click anymore, i just read the last post and refresh myself. I dont think the H2 is big. I think my Renault Grand Espace is big, the H2 is fucking huge. Americans are stupid.
actually, we are still on topic since we are still talking about overpriced yuppie status symbols.
back when, i should have been more descriptive in expressing that you could get other mp3 players with more features, memory, etc. for a more affordable price.
but you couldnt when the origional ipod came out, could you? I could be wrong. but i'm pretty sure they atleast wernt at that size or with such a good UI
When the first iPod came out it was the only mp3 player with such big HDD, and it became popular, so what justifies the existance of this new iPod anus or what ever? It's not ever cheap to lure in people who are buying their first iPod/player.
It's pretty well the same as GBA, GBA SP and GBA Micro, all the same, they just look bit different, no dramatical changes. Or am I wrong, is there people crazy enough to have all four iPods for different occasions?
I doubt people have all 4, theyre just designed to target different people. I'm not particularly bothered about carrying 1000000 songs around with me but i wouldnt mind a couple of hundred (which still dont fit on the majority of 'mp3 players') and out of the ipod and its close competition (zen micro?) which are roughly the same size/spec i'd choose the ipod as its more stylish and easier to use. That said i'd consider the zen because it plays WMA's.
Perhaps apple arent innovating anymore but theyre continuing to develop an extremely successful product range and we cant blame them for that. No doubt they would be considerably less successful if they didnt have what i believe is one of the best marketing teams in the industry as far as targetting audiences and making them buy stuff is concerned.
It's just too bad that the ipod's still cost so damn much... You would think that just the regular iPod by now would be half the price of what it used to be, but it's not sadly enough :/
yeah, but i suspect thats cause people are still buying them at the same price they always used to. And technically the regular ipod is no longer the regular ipod, because as far as i can see they've now ditched the regular ipod and mini, and are only running the nano and photo product lines along side the shuffle and U2 which remains the only b+w ipod.
Its all about Foobar2k. It can be arranged in sooo many ways. Its more about features and functions than having it look like a stupid orange with jessica alba sitting on it.
I agree, iTunes is freaking ugly. Thats why I only use it to update my Mini.
