Back in the 1950s, the THING to have was a "hot rod"... Now, in the 21st century...

new PC water cooling system, or the latest version of fish tank heater?

I hope those are tropical fish that love warm water.

Brings new meaning to the phrase "What'll they think of next?" LOL

I wouldn't mind having a faster digital 'rod, but if I had a choice I'd rather have back my '68 Charger R/T 375hp 440 Magnum or my '68 Firebird 400.(gone now, like my Pentons & KTMs)

Much more adrenalin than a "magnum" processor. :-)

My son wants to sell his KX125 to build a new PC. Seems he has "filled up" his custom built, "magnum" Alienware PC, and feels the "need for speed".

Different than the need for speed of the real hot rod generation.

I plan to have him watch American Graffiti, just for kicks.

I guess the world will never be the same.

Me, I'll take 400+hp/500ftlbs ground-pounding torque anyday, instead of quadzion gigs of whatever.

Ah, I miss the smell of burnt rubber in the moonlight and the view of the other guy's headlights fading in the mirror as I catch the next gear....:-))))

Better quit before I get too much adrenalin to sleep.
