So, Is Microsoft Trying to Kill the Xbox One?

There's another video game console fight coming, and Microsoft's latest -- the Xbox One -- has a hard act to follow as it joins the fray. Its predecessor, the Xbox 360, took on the competition and eventually dominated the gaming segment. It has been outselling both the Nintendo and Sony consoles for some time now. I'm guessing Microsoft felt it had an unfair advantage, because it apparently has been doing its level best to scare gamers away from the Xbox One ever since it was announced. ...

The Jaguar F-Type vs. Tesla S: Amazingly Alike

I finished my hunt for a new car last month, and as many know, it came down to either the Tesla S or the Jaguar F-Type. While affording one of those expensive cars in full performance form was questionable, there was no question we couldn't afford both.
