I really miss the days when articles were about Mac hardware as well as powerful software and accessories that really enhanced the experience and made it possible for a normal guy like me to be creative.

Fast and Furious 6 is not Tokyo Drift (although he did direct that as well). It's: "The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift"
IE the only F&F that was about street racing. Others are heist films with car chases
