Everyone keeps mentioning Moore's Law and all the problems that go with it. Why isn't there anyone to stand up to him so that we're finally free of his damn limiting laws?

If the future of free games means installing DRM crap on our computers, such as SecuROM, then they can keep their "free games". It's only going to become an entry point for companies to install their malware on our computers.
If it was so insignificant then Blizzard would have stopped doing Mac versions a decade ago. Also, Mac users are more likely to buy games than to pirate them.
And last, the Mac OS X marketshare is growing, and so is the Linux one.
Starcraft-themed FPS? Oh yeah, sign me up! Imagine yourself as a marine at the front line while the computer is sending a swarm of zerglings at your base!
How about Starcraft III, where two players play the game as commanders (RTS) and all other players play as soldiers/pilots/etc (FPS)? Now THAT would be insane!

Oh wait, that kind of law. My bad.
It's nanometers, you stupid Anonymous Cow....
Oh wait, I see what you did here.
As opposed to what? MSN users?
Sounds more like Mayor West to me.... oops, wrong show.
Does it have speed holes?
Buy a Tandy MC-10 or CoCo 2/3, or a Commodore 64/128. They boot under a second.

It would be nice to making 3 cents for every gallon we burn, then we'd finally be able to afford to fuel up!
Oh wait.

Ok, so they still have at least 5 years left.
And how is edgesuite.net a direct link to Apple?
Yeah but marketing is the problem here. No matter how much cash you put into Web, TV and radio ads, it makes no difference!

Wait, which one is the chicken again?
Note to Activision: if you mess with Blizzard's NATIVE Mac versions, we won't buy them.
And when I say native I do mean native, not some lazy-ass, half-baked transgaming version.
It's gonna be Brawndo, of course!
