Not to mention that in 5 years* there's a fair chance your low budget computer will be able to play the game you played on their system this year. If they let the key/license transfer to a local copy of the game it would help keep its value.
*maybe not 3 years. and maybe not in 5 years for Crysis type games that you want to keep playing on your mobile, but not all games are super graphics intense.
I imagine it's more a matter of "better safe than sorry" when management asks whether or not something should be kept.
Chances are, this "business data" is somewhat financially related. This also means there's a fair chance the government can/has/will tax something in those documents. And how long are we supposed to keep our records in case of audits?
Wasn't Scroogle messed up by a Google change recently? And Scroogle said they'd never get it working again? I think it was a Slashdot article a few weeks back.
Maybe this is why?
I know people in the area. They told me the biggest objections came from people living in NYC and Conn. who had summer and weekend homes in the area. The thing is some 15 miles off of the coast. The people most bothered will be on their yachts miles out to sea.
I don't know about you but I'd obviously rather stab my eyes out and burn down my vacation home than see those ugly filthy things on the horizon./sarcasm
Funny thing: illegal aliens breaking into houses HAVE sued the homeowners for such things as falling on a knife and injuring their legs. Kids screwing around on the roofs of schools have sued the school district when they, illegally trespassing, nevertheless fell through a skylight and injured themselves.
In other words, the law is fucked up, and the fact that you can manage to empanel a jury of 12 retards who don't understand the law & policy, scare them with "wooh this was scary internets stuff", and then have a paid-off judge give the jury bad instructions doesn't help.
I see you got that chain email too.
Care to show us these cases? I've started googling and have only come up with sites debunking it.
I know they're so easy to believe since the [skewed] McDonald's hot coffee case, but let's try and be skeptical when we hear about any ridiculous lawsuits.
This reminds me of the time I worked in a Sony TV manufacturing plant for 4 months.
No heating or air conditioning, dirty restrooms, 12 hour shift where I'd gladly nap during my 10 and 30 minute breaks. The cafeteria basically only had snacks. Monotonous work. No sitting or resting outside of your breaks.
Oh wait, this was in San Diego, California.
Guess what, manual labor jobs suck? Congratulations!
Of course I'm sure it's worse where OSHA isn't breathing down a company's neck, but is this really news? Did anyone expect Microsoft to *not* have these kinds of places?

Do we really need 3 physics engines?
Haven't they seen America's Funniest Home Videos?
People already have trouble handling 1 physics engine!

That's amazing!
I've got the same combination on my luggage!

Can you really blame them? Take a look at the estimated visual impact of the wind farm:
