PC vs. Mac: What's the Big Deal?
The two major choices in computer hardware are roughly equivalent, so how do you know what you need?


When considering whether to go with a Mac or a Windows-based computer, look beyond speed and memory, since they're fairly comparable in those areas. Instead, consider what you'll really need, and go from there.

Head South For the Winter – Way South!
And we’re not talking the Caribbean Islands.


They labeled it on old maps as “Terra Incognita Australis” – “The unknown land of the south.” It’s a world of scenic wonders that you’ve only read about in books and seen in movies. It’s a place that very few people have been. It’s time for you to experience the wonder of Antarctica.

Check Your Car With the Change of Seasons
Car trouble is almost always due to neglected preventive maintenance.


Tow truck operators serving the nation’s Interstates can testify to the surprising number of travelers forced to return home ahead of schedule because of car trouble. The cost of a breakdown can easily exceed that of a repair bill with towing charges, emergency lodging and possibly a rental car. Just think: All that inconvenience is avoidable by performing factory recommended preventive maintenance and having us check your car before you head out on a major trip.

Survival Reality, Volvo Style
There’s this family—the Weavers—and their Volvos.


The Weavers of New Castle, Kentucky are Volvo enthusiasts. Collectively, the family has had eight Volvos between them. If this were a “nine-lives” story, we would be one car away from the unthinkable. Fortunately, this is a Volvo For Life story.

The Volvo Ocean Race Has Environmental Angle
What can 37,000 miles of sailboat racing contribute to the environment?


You might well ask, what is the connection between ocean racing and manufacturing Volvos? Both are all about going the distance under any conditions Mother Nature wants to throw at you. Longevity. Durability. Performance. Survival. Still, what is the connection between ocean racing and environmental sustainability? This particular connection is a bit more complicated, but just as meaningful!

Volvo and the Invention of the Three-Point Seatbelt
The most important safety feature in cars today was first used in a Volvo.


Among Volvo employees and enthusiasts, you are likely to hear a few words that at first sound unlikely. “There’s a little bit of Volvo in every vehicle on the American road!” You know what? That statement is true! For the 1959 model year, Volvo made the three-point seatbelt standard equipment on all its cars. The rest, as they say, is history.
