Accident involving 200+ cars occurs on Abu Dhabi-Dubai highway {Autoblog}

Actually that type of weather condition isn't unusual here. It happens regularly at certain times of the year. The response from the speeding drivers in fog is to...keep speeding. On clear days it is very common for drivers to blow by me even when I am doing 180. Add to this their belief that Allah decides if they die or not, so it is pointless wearing a seat belt. This is why the UAE has one of the highest driving death rates in the world.

Jan 22nd 2008 1:11PM We've stopped using the new Acer 5710 with Vista I purchased for my wife . It's turned out to be a real dog. The one gig of RAM isn't enough, and adding a flashdrive of 2 gigs with the "readyboost" feature didn't help to speed it up. Takes forever to start up and shut down, or start up things like Word. We have also had constant connect/disconnect issues with our wireless internet connection, a known problem with Vista when sharing with XP on the same network. The claim that a simple google search solves all these issues is false (I am a computer instructor). After several months of losing productivity with Vista we are now back to my 3 year old Acer with XP until I go out and my another copy of XP for our newer laptop.
