feature bloat

Top Gear script editors. Just because Clarkson is pally with various army and air force types you may still want to check the accuracy of things he says about military jets - he has a habit of using the same cliches in his columns and Top Gear reviews and for a fellow so keen on hyperbole they seem to be running away with him - getting bigger in the re-telling.



For when that video gets taken down here's a transcript:


“Modern Jet fighters are kept in the air not by the pilot but by several million Gigabytes of hardcore software, and this [Ferrari GTO] is just the same”


Several Petabytes of software Jezza?

Damn those lazy ass geeks need to clean up their code.
