So Awesome: 13 year old spends a week with a Walkman →
When I got my first Walkman (thanks Aunt Pat!) I got two singles with it. Michael Jackson’s “Smooth Criminal” and Bon Jovi’s “Love for Sale”
He had told me it was big, but I hadn’t realised he meant THAT big. It was the size of a small book.
When I saw it for the first time, its colour also struck me. Nowadays gadgets come in a rainbow of colours but this was only one shade - a bland grey.
That’s RoboCop gray to you kid!

BREAKING: F1 reunites as Max Mosely reportedly forced to quit F1 →
Well crap. I was honestly looking forward to a breakaway series that would put give more money to the teams. I think that would encourage smaller teams just as much as a budget cap. Giving more money to the teams isn’t an option with F1 because the series is up to its eyeballs in debt and has to keep as much of the (massive) money it pulls in from TV and tracks it can to keep that under control. So the only way F1 has for making small teams more viable is to tell all teams to spend less rather than giving the teams a bigger chunk of the enormous profits. This is part of why I think Bernie is as much of a problem as Max, but at least 50% of that daring duo is out.
