Chapter 1, Page 22, paragraph 2 reads:

"No you need you programmers instantiate actual car types such as BMWBoxster and SubaruOutback. We'll bet the Boxster owner will tell you his car does things the Subaru can do "only in its dreams." Take a look at..."

Correction: BMW does not make a Boxster, Porsche does, so I'm pretty sure if you're talking to anyone who knows anything about autos BMWBoxster won't compile.

While I agree with K&B that the Boxster owner will tell you his car does thing a Subaru can't, I would also add that most Porches do things that Boxsters can't.

Lastly, no self respecting software mogul would be caught dead driving a Boxster!

If you've read all of this without realizing that I'm joking, you've been studying way too much Java and I fear you may have lost your sense of humor...just sayin'

Luckily it was just for laughs. Phew! Back to my couch
