And here's what my girlfriend Kathy's 2015 Corvette Stingray looks like with her sitting in it.
It looks as if it could get a speeding ticket while parked!

Apple will have an iTransporter in the center which instantly teleports everyone to Alpha Centauri.

Yabbut in three months there will be the iTransporter2...then 3...How many upgrades will you need to get back?

But it is fun to drive, especially with all the bells and whistles.

Sometimes, I think all that stuff is to distract you from not being out of the parking lot yet...

Skyscrapers, also have a construction cost problem. Above 10 or 20 floors, costs go up geometrically. According to Trump in “Art of the deal”. Of course that was written in 1987, and I’m sure construction techniques have improved since then.

A couple of Google pics help show the size. Look at the building compared to neighboring houses.

When you fly over, or do a google map view of my place of employment, one of the buildings looks like and 40pin DFN IC . . .
Nowhere near as cool as a spaceship,, but spiffy nonetheless. .

I wouldn't be surprised but if the architect didn't have the scale in mind, but avoided the pentagon shape purposefully. Steve Jobs said he wanted an infinite circle shape for a reason, though.
