Sega did this the right way with Phantasy Star Online: money abounds, item storage is limited, rare items are not that much better than good non-rare ones, and you can't kill another player.
What does it mean? A good player soon has more money than he can spend and lots of weapons for which he has little use. So veterans usually give away their old stuff to newbies, and everyone went together to do what's actually fun: help each other and kill monsters.
Best of all, Phantasy Star Online was an action-RPG - it took skill, rather than just levels and clicking. Hands down, THE BEST ONLINE GAME EVER.
Remember the flickering 3D glasses for Sega's old Master System? They were pretty good. It'd be great if a modern game console had something like that.
I recall reading the news about a guy who was arrested for statutory rape - that is, having sex with a minor. Funny thing is... aforementioned minor was his WIFE. (they got married in a state with less retardedly restrictive age-of-consent laws)
I once had a teacher whose classes were total marxist crap. For my final report and test, I decided to go wild - took an absolute pro-capitalism stance and quoted Rand, Friedman, Mises, Hayek, Böhm-Bawerk... I pretty much pointed that everything she had taught was bullshit.
Can't recall the grades right now, but I was approved. Maybe she was so puzzled that her little commie brain didn't know what to make out of that!
Why, they will start using canids, of course! Just imagine. Mac OS 10.5 Husky, Mac OS 10.6 Dobermann, Mac OS 10.7 Red Fox, Mac OS 10.8 Jackal, Mac OS 10.9 Timberwolf...
...oh wait. What will they do when they run out of numbers for point releases?!
This sounds a bit like something from Atlas Shrugged... government-owned State Science Institute is a money drain that never makes anything relevant; and all of a sudden, industrialist Hank Rearden invents a new, fantastic metal alloy. The Institute, of course, tries to destroy Rearden, or else people might realize what a waste of money it is.

Even worse... Some PC manufacturers get away with selling PCs WITH MS Windows preinstalled! *shudders*

Well, Apple has System 7, and a lot of other really old software, available for free download . Hell, they even have Apple ][ stuff!
