Like its predecessor, you can get a Camaro in different sizes of vroom. The lower-end LS model features a 300-hp, 3.4-liter, V-6 engine that goes from 0 to 60 m.p.h. in 6.1 seconds. The higher-priced SS model, which I drove, has a 6.2-liter, V-8 engine that tops out at 426 hp and cuts the time to 4.7 seconds to reach 60 m.p.h. Is the twitch-quick Mustang GT a little more responsive off the mark? Maybe, but running the Camaro through second, third and fourth gears will quickly, very quickly, make you forget...

Each of these has to run on two or more turbo diesels which put out 480 HP at 3,000 PRM. These are not engines which are likely to be used on any of the hijacked ships so they are probably one of the largest direct costs the pirates have. If the pirates operate 50 raiding boat it requires 100 engines. These cost as much as $15,000 each...
...earnings that beat analyst expectations. No one would have known that by looking at the collapse of the share price. The company, which has about 80% of the market for the main processors used in personal computers, is considered a bellwether for how hardware firms like Dell (DELL) and HP (HPQ) will do. Intel's figures are considered predictive of the strength of the sales of Microsoft's (MSFT) Windows...
...Another critical pillar of the market is tech because it now represents such a huge part of the national GDP and the market caps of companies like Microsoft (MSFT), HP (HPQ), Cisco (CSCO), and Intel (INTC) make up such a significant part of the weighting of the S&P. For the most part, tech has done as well or better than the broader market over the last month...
