If they can restore data from glass platters which have been shattered into a million pieces after dropping the drive from the 12th floor they're more than worth their money.
We're simply looking at an increasing gap in the demand for CPU power.
For most people (documents, spreadsheets, email, browsing) an i5 is more than powerful enough to satisfy the current demand. OTOH there are specialized areas (visual effects, simulation,...) where even the current top-of-the-line models of Sandy Bridge Xeons reach their limit way too easily.
Seems like a repeat performance of the same bullshit Paramount pulled during the 90's when they went after fan websites, pissing on the free advertising those sites represented.
That's more of a matter of OnLive's lawyers looking into how they can suea hefty sum out of GameStop. It's not Square's fault that a retailer has caused financial damages by removing those coupons.
Don't forget OnLive, who actually benefit from this whole thing. - They don't have to honor the $50 vouchers GameStop has thrown away. - They get free publicity as a company who decided to give something for free to their potential customers and have been wronged by a competitor. -...
Their marketing department should send a huge fruits basket to the GameStop HQ to say thanks.

A McAfee product which causes more problems than it solves?
I think you just destroyed my faith in the universe. ;)
But, it's got electrolytes!!! ;)

Thanks. Almost forgot about that one.
I checked the developer summary earlier today and this new version actually contains some useful features for a change!!!
In my case it's this scene from an old documentary/comedy:

The one where you need to add additional objects to the database just to auto-increment a fucking primary key?
And the next step will be a cloud-based compiler so Microsoft can automatically check whether your code infringey on any of their patents???
Apples and oranges.
Win2k on the NT branch, before they combined both product lines.
Seems they're on an alternating pattern
95 -> 98 -> 98SE -> Me ->XP -> Vista -> 7 -> 8 ->
For some reason every even product doesn't seem to be worth shit. Guess that mean Windows 9 will be usable again.
Someone in Redmond realized that a server doesn't necessarily need a GUI???
The effects sequences would need to be recomposited anyway, since cutting and post work was done on video instead of film.
There never were any moon landings.
Proof: Not a single Apollo mission brought back any cheese!
A kingdom for some mod points!!!!

Nah, in that case we'd end up with Giko instead of the Apple logo.

Calling one of those turds a "car" was mighty generous of them.
If this ever happens the mice will be really pissed.
Kill it with fire!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
On the bright side, Gnome 3 and Unity are some of the best things that could have happened to Xfce, LXDE and other competitors.
^^ Actually had to think of one of my favorite childhood shows before that cat came to mind:
