In Europe, cost of producing Diesel fuel is 0.5 cent higher compared to gasoline but consumer prices are lower.

For example, in Germany:
1.423 EUR/liter (Gasoline)
1.224 EUR/liter (Diesel)

Keep in mind that a Euro-Diesel engine option adds a minimum of 2000 EUR ($2800) to the car price.

Tried on Windows, performance improvements are immediately noticeable. Wastes less screen space by default. For those who are used to the old look-and-feel can feel a little awkward at first.

Set extensions.checkCompatibility to false and you're good to go.

Good idea. You can even use an existing add-on, Greasemonkey to do this.

It was 1996, I was 14. It was a Slackware 3.x CD from a PC magazine that I don't remember the name of. My PC was a 486.

I gave it a try mainly because of its network capabilities.

What capabilities? Malicious of course.. I was able to nuke'em all on the IRC!

Definitely. I had applied for Mortgage in Bank A and transferred all my money from Bank B to Bank A.

It was Friday, the mortgage money would arrive on Monday so I would go and buy the house with the combined cash.

Bank B said it transferred the money already, but Bank A didn't credit my account, so I phoned the bank branch. They asked for my account number and said "Oh yeah, sorry, we are just processing your transfer and crediting your account". It was 5 minutes to end of work day.
If I hadn't called, I would have missed the 2 day interest for my own money (Yearly interest rate was 14% in my country, so it made sense).

With so little supply, indeed it is.
