Microsoft isn't going to sell more copies of Vista until they do stop selling XP, and people no longer have a choice. But stopping all sales of XP now would be suicide for them, so either way they're screwed. I doubt if anything will happen in the additional six months of XP's life that will alter this scenario much, but I guess we'll see.
Okay, in addition to all the other obvious reasons this an unfair, terrible idea -- what about the female players who don't own webcams? Will they be forced to go out and buy one just to keep playing? Sure, you can get a cheap one, but still.
Also, I thought it was pretty much understood that MMORPG = Many Men Online Role Playing Women. I thought people just came to expect it these days.
I agree with the above comment -- our "poor old grandparents" are people too! And, though they may be difficult to find, I'm sure there are plenty of people who still use the AIM client just because they honestly like it better. (Perish the thought.) AOL is showing a huge lack of propriety.
