This would be a good idea except they're putting it in Long Island. I would rather buy a Gateway running Vista Ultimate than try battling the LIE (on what currently takes an unholy amount of time to cross and is sure to increase with a new resort opening...and the craters that knock your transmission out of gear don't engender fond memories either). ...although you do get to enjoy the 100,000 decibles of bass being pumped out of countless '89 Honda Civics along the way. Always a plus. I think he was joking about the picturesque landscape on LI.

Right now it's a big fenced-off field with a warehouse looking building way in the distance. It's a really quiet area with a cemetery on the other side. I don't know about the beautiful landscape part, it's been wasted space for so long. I just don't want more traffic in that area. And 2 out of 5 neighboring houses has a late 80's, early 90's camaro/firebird in their driveway. It’s going where Northrop Grumman currently resides.
