Free [Bionic] Screensaver! Mercedes Bionic Diesel
We had an opportunit to see Mercedes new concept vehicle -- the bionic car -- a crossover diesel inspired by God's design of the humble boxfish. And you now have a chance to download what is probably the world's very first bionic diesel screensaver!
Not only was the car a tremendous amount of fun to ogle over, the two Mercedes engineers on hand, Dieter Gurtler and Ralph Hettich, were a total delight, offering detailed explanations about the project, and yes, test rides.
I don't know how I got the idea, but somehow, around 11 last night, I decided it would be fun to create a screensaver based on my and Mercedes photos. Let's hear it for the plus side of having Adult ADD! It only took me five or six hours and $60 to buy the software.
Anyway, I think it'll be a fine addition to your desktop -- and baby boomers, culture junkies and TV fanatics should appreciate the intro music. And did I mention it's free?
You can download the very first Car Buyer's Notebook screensaver, featuring the Mercedes Bionic Diesel, by clicking here. The program I've used allows you to add an icon to your desktop, so you can play the show anytime you like.
