Google Earth recently picked up on something solid and unquestionable (as opposed to Atlantis), however the structure it uncovered could lead to hard times for the British government. A close-up aerial view of Faslane, Scotland reveals the UK's secret Trident-armed nuclear submarine base, and even provides the longitude and latitude coordinates for all terrorists to enjoy and plummet with mortar attacks.

The images generated by the free Google Earth software (also available on iPhone and iPod Touch) even shows two Vanguard Class submarines, each capable of carrying 16 nuclear missiles. That aside the program illustrates the Trident Special Area located just ten miles away, the facility where the naval base's nuclear warheads are stored. As if that weren’t enough, the satellite images can also be used to locate the nuclear crisis HQ in Northwood, North London, the SAS training facility in Hereford, and MI6's London offices.

Is that a SATA port at the end, or does it plug into a PCI-E slot? You can't boot from a PCI-E slot...

Bill Gates is even more evil than I thought. If the kid wants an iPod, give the kid a damn iPod.

Nope that is a molex power connector at the end. The device is built around a HighPoint RocketRaid PCI-Express x8 card and you most certainly can boot from it.
