Next step for microsoft would be to remove support for their current languages, and push.net developers into 'm'. Of course, 'm' is for microsoft, so you will lose the legal battle when m$ sues for your source code.
Google doesn't have an IDE with a built in application creator wizard.
An Xbox sounds pretty cool if all I have to do is

1. Customers lose value of their purchased assets. (ie, this specifically attempts to reduce resale value)
2. It increases costs. Great, I just wanted a game and I ended up buying 100 songs too? (Don't lie to me like the retail packaging and pretend it was free)
These aren't incentives to buy a product. They are incentives to buy it new vs. used.

Thanks for pointing that out. I was just about to applaud this forward thinking change in sniper team structure. I could've really embarrassed myself.
1. Good boys and girls get a bonus for being good. 2. Bad boys and girls figure out how to also benefit from these bonuses. 3. Devs panic and institute some ridiculous mechanism that typically only hinders the good boys and girls.
Example: 1. Everyone that purchases a new copy of a game at release will get a bonus 5 maps. 2. These maps are quickly torrented and now everyone has them. 3. Devs ban these 5 bonus maps from play with a game update. Only players that download and install a EULA-breaking crack will still be able to play these maps.
I don't think you appreciate the Diablo's. The best part was hearing people cry when you loot their gold. It's so great because the economy in Diablo is so broken, they may as well be crying that you stole their pocket lint.
It never gets old.
Also, you carebears out there would enjoy griefing too. All you have to do is fake interest in an obvious scam. Ask dumb questions the whole time and see how long you can maintain the scammers interest. Not only is is a hoot, but you're making the world a better place too so you can have happy dreams of rainbows too.

I think tin foil hats are actually made of tin foil.
Do people still think you have to wait in line for a time slice on a computer anymore?
I'm sorry, but if you "scientists" can't find compute time somewhere, you've got bigger problems.
Yeah, leave the record label businesses up to da smartz guis in da housss boiya!!
Yahoo requires users to be successful.
Users are pissed off.
ergo Yahoo hurt themselves. Who cares if users have a "right" to be pissed off.
People kept saying WoW = Waiting on Warhammer. I'd just like to know now that warhammer online has been out for a bit, was it true?
Maybe not the best we've heard, but seriously mod parent up, you laughed just like I did.

Oh, the news was they exposed the mailing list?
I thought it was that Verizon had figured out e-mail.

OMG SHUT IT DOWN!!!
It's not news. This is an advertisement.
In other news, mass firings across the nation as radiologists caught e-mailing photos of topless women around, about 31,000 photos in all.
hint: Call of Duty 4. If the community is dumb enough to buy the same game 4 times, they probably are willing to play a game with such frustrations.

It is absolutely anti-customer.
1. Customers lose value of their purchased assets. (ie, this specifically attempts to reduce resale value)
2. It increases costs. Great, I just wanted a game and I ended up buying 100 songs too? (Don't lie to me like the retail packaging and pretend it was free)

These incentives don't work.
1. Good boys and girls get a bonus for being good.
2. Bad boys and girls figure out how to also benefit from these bonuses.
3. Devs panic and institute some ridiculous mechanism that typically only hinders the good boys and girls.
Example:
1. Everyone that purchases a new copy of a game at release will get a bonus 5 maps.
2. These maps are quickly torrented and now everyone has them.
3. Devs ban these 5 bonus maps from play with a game update. Only players that download and install a EULA-breaking crack will still be able to play these maps.
What good are multiplayer maps that other players don't have access to? Isn't the point to play with others?

When my leather-bound he-elf dances through the trees he calls his friends, something will be flaming.
Don't care if I'll be missed, and I'll find a way to grief you in game. If we can interact, I will find a way.
I started that expecting it to be cheesy or funny. I thought it was really impressive that those concepts were taught to such a young audience.
Welcome to the two partied, one party system.
Ooooh, a new MMO!
