China To Connect Its High-Speed Rail To Europe 691
MikeChino sends in this excerpt from Inhabitat: "China already has the most advanced and extensive high-speed rail lines in the world, and soon that network will be connected all the way to Europe and the UK. With initial negotiations and surveys already complete, China is now making plans to connect its HSR line through 17 other countries in Asia and Eastern Europe in order to connect to the existing infrastructure in the EU. Additional rail lines will also be built into South East Asia as well as Russia, in what will likely become the largest infrastructure project in history." They hope to get it done within 10 years, with China providing the financing in exchange for raw materials, in some cases.

I believe in facts, not in words. We all have heard them stating that 'Microsoft claims Vista is more secure than OS X and Linux ...' or 'Microsoft launched its Trustworthy Computing initiative in 2002...'
Cut the crap. Do it instead or saying that you are doing it. The thing is that nowadays, Microsoft is a company that stands out for things other than innovation and the like... Go do it and do it well
