Interplay Finally In Process Of Going Under?

Random Guru 42 writes "GameSpot is reporting that Interplay is sliding further down the spiral of going out of business. Hopefully the rumors of Interplay's demise are greatly exaggerated." We previously covered earlier rumblings of Interplay's demise, and Sivar writes "According to a Fallout news website, Interplay has 'told the employees to file for unemployment' [a later source indicates 'the employees have until Friday to move all of their personal possessions out of... the Interplay offices]." Finally, an update to the GameSpot story has an un-named, masked employee insisting on the closure rumors: "No, that's not true" - it's also pointed out Interplay "...is facing a battery of lawsuits, including one by Arden Realty for $432,000 in back rent and another by BioWare for $156,000 for unpaid Baldur's Gate royalties."

If they had ported their stuff to Ninnle, things might be OK. After all, Ninnle Linux is fast becoming the choice OS of gamers.

Tiger Woods and The Rock are not mulatto. Each has a black parent, but neither has a white one.

Also, the word mulatto has a "interesting" etymology and is generally only used by the ignorant or racist. It refers to a mule, the sterile freakish work animal you get when you cross a horse and a donkey. In this analogy, guess who gets to be the inferior, barely-equine, 2-chromosome deficient donkey?
