Ok that does make sense, but you would think if the mechanism was finely balanced and one set of magnets was stronger than the other it could be done. Like one set of magnets rocking back and forth out the way like rocker cams. I am just guessing.

No purpose really. Just curious if it can be done and if not why.

Seth, That all sounds good and you are probably correct, but the fact that an electric motor runs by magnetism alone is what is confusing. Granted half of it is electromagnetism but it is magnetism none the less. The only difference between a permanent magnet and and electro magnet is that...

I am sure their are engineers and scientist that have thought about this forever. I just have never heard why it won't work or if it has ever been done on any scale.

I was not exactly referring to perpetual motion as I am aware that the magnets would loose their energy over time. I was more interested in knowing of a self powered motor has ever been made by just using all permanent magnets. I realize that in an electric motor the stator changes polarity as...

This is something I have often wondered about. Is it theoretically possible to build a motor powered only by powerful permanent magnets? I have never heard about it being done, but it would seem, on the surface, that it would be possible to harness the power of the magnets to do work. If not...

Only Uma and one other actually looked fine without. The rest are dogs and some are downright skanky looking.

Too bad the movie is a complete POS and waste of time.

I really only like the wall anymore when I am watching the film. Now when they do a DTS HD master audio track with an HD re-master I will be all over it.

Those guys have a HUGE set of balls is all I can say. I admire their skill more than formula 1 drivers.

I think given the choice between the two I would go with B&O. Just looking them over they seem to be big leap up in driver quality on their speakers over Bose. One could almost say a lot of Bose stuff is just B&O wanna be's. They were making this type of wife friendly stuff long before Bose got...

I used to be a huge Floyd fan. Lately though I have grown tired of it. I really am starting to loose interest in a lot stuff I used to listen to from 70's-80'sish. I want new stuff. I think that is why I find the symphonic metal so refreshing and also stuff like Porcupine Tree.

HD and now SuperHD. After that it will be SuperDuperTripleDogDareYaHD. It never stops.

There are companies that offer similar styles at a premium price and do it better. Here is one for example. http://www.bang-olufsen.com/

What is it? New intel chips?

No they look fine I have one. It was the Clamshell ibooks that were butt ugly. Steve was smoking some 70's leftovers when he allowed those. Now whoever doesn't think this looks sexy needs a roundhouse kick in the nads.

Huh! I bet Wayde did not expect this much chatter over his article. I though it was a good read Wayde, but count me in the Bose hater group and here is why. I don't buy for a minute that they actually believe the crap they spout. They know damn well that most of their consumer stuff is crap and...

? I have mon-thur off:confused:

I would say the Macbook Air, the macpro, and the Macbook pro are unequalled in the industry. No consumer computer company comes even close. Bose on the other hand. bleh!

Yeah that was really a bad comparison as the two companies really have nothing in common. One offers decent products with stellar engineering that are sometimes higher priced and sometimes not depending on the product, and the other offers WAY over priced junk touted to be the best you can get...
