  • Magic Carpet Ride: 2009 BMW 335i xDrive Sedan

    The hour was late, and I was anxious to get out of the city and head to the Berkshires for the weekend. Waiting for me in the underground garage was an Alpine White BMW 335i with all-wheel drive. That would be a joy to many but I viewed the ride with somewhat mixed emotions.

    Unlike the vast majority of motoring journalists, I have never been a huge fan of BMWs. I've MORE

On a day that Microsoft's (MSFT) stock tanked by 12%, once again Google MORE

    If the new arrivals can't compete with the Germans on heritage and brand equity, they can at least give the Europeans a run for their money on function, performance, and--most of all--value.

    Acura is the most MORE

  • The Cook Doctrine at Apple

    There was a magical moment that had nothing to do with financial results Wednesday afternoon in Apple's (AAPL) conference call with investors. What made the magic remarkable is that it came from Tim Cook, the supposedly uncharismatic, unemotional, uninspiring chief operating officer of the company, the guy whom Steve Jobs tapped to run day-to-day operations during his medical leave of absence, even though Cook already runs the company's operations.

    Asked the MORE

  • Why Yahoo's Bartz should quit her boards

    Pattie Sellers and I are having a debate about board memberships. She intelligently argues that boards are good, especially for women, who have a disadvantage at the highest reaches of corporate America.

    Still, you'll know Carol Bartz, the incoming CEO of Yahoo (YHOO), is super serious about her massive task at hand if she immediately drops off the boards of Cisco (CSCO), where's she's the lead independent director; Intel (INTC) a MORE
