Comment Re:Not just the roads (Score 1) 348

I would say a lot of it comes from the Belgian's relation to alcohol, and their willingness to drive after drinking.
My boss had a car accident after some heavy drinking, and the cops didn't even make him take an alcohol test, even though it was QUITE obvious he was drunk. (I should know, I got to drive him home...)
Where I'm from (France) he would have spent the night in the drunk tank, and would probably have come very close to losing his license...

Also, the facts that all the roads are in VERY poor conditions doesn't help. When you drive in a huge pothole at 140km/h, you will probably feel like you're flying... Right before you hit the trees.

no, they shouldn't disband themselves, but they should stop pouring money down projects with no future.

Let's see, what happened with the Zune?

What happened the courier tablet? Or the Kin phone?

They are making more money off the android patent trolling than they are of windows phone...

And I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that Bing lost around 5 BILLIONS since its creations.

The touchpad only sold well because of the fire sale, when HP sold it at a huge loss...
