Thanks DIB for the info. Thought it might use a carbon brush motor! Although I believe they are trying to work on more smaller, quieter, powerful versions of the DDM! Do like the new floor tool, looks air driven not motor driven? Very different to the ball on the motorhead power nozzle! DC18 P.S. We now at my place of work have Airblades installed! I think they are the new AB02's not the AB01's!! DC18, The hemispherical wheels/ball look like they steer the nozzle well. The nozzles are air and motor driven. The Motorhead uses a Telescopic Wrap system. On a “cool factor” rating, IMO the DC26 is just as cool as the DDM DC22. Sir James is on the attack of late by out-inventing his *enemies and rivals. The Airblade’s are great. Folks like to comment on them as you’re drying your hands. DIB *Those mfgs. who strong-arm and steal from Dyson.

I believe there are now less than 800 billionaires on the planet.
Forbes said that in the recent edition of the Richest in the World. Down over 300 from 2007. You know any one who was knocked off the list? According the Forbes wealthy list editor, nothing runs more scared than a noveau riche who falls off the billionaire's list. After being use to the perks and prestige, they can't cope with giving them up.
Closer to earth and home, according to the latest survey of the Spectrum Group which follows these matters, the number of millionaires in the USA in 2008 fell by 27 percent. The total number of US households with net worth of at least $1 MILLION [not counting home of residence] sank from 9.2 M in 2007 to 6.7 M in 2008. The population of millionaires is now at the same level as 2003-4, meaning the economic crisis has erased the millionaire boom of the past 5 years. Use to be when old man Forbes was at the helm, a friend of mine, I subscribed. Back then they said 2/3 of the Forbes subscribers were millionaires. Wonder if the fallen still are? Carmine D.

Several of my closest friends were knocked off the list. I was only $99 short of being on the list. I may give up buying cars, mowers, golf clubs and vacuums to try again to get on the list of billionaires.
I have ocean front property on the north side of Las Vegas. I will sell it cheap if you are interested.

You know the definition of a recession? When your neighbor's wife loses her job. You know the definition of a depression [with a small d]? When your neighbor loses his job. You know the definition of a Depression [with a large D]. When you lose your job!
Nice to know that you have not been affected [yet]! Vegas and Nevada have been hard hit. Probably one of the worse affected in the country on all accounts: Jobs loss, property values depressed, foreclosures, ad infinitum. Even the influx of people out-of-state and country, so long the foundation of the construction industry which fueled the people and business growth, has subsided to all time lows. Carmine D.

Lexus, your fave luxury brand, was dropped from the top dependabilty spot by J.D. Power & Associates. Beat out by BUICK. Seems car buyers are trading down too not just vacuum purchasers. Carmine D. I like buicks. THey have always been GM's quality auto IMO. Better than Cadillac. They still do not drive and rid as good as the Lexus.
