Some friend of mine installed Firefox on his network drive at school and caught a great deal of flack for it. Because we know what a great risk a proven, secure web browser poses...
Anyone up for dragging Cary Sherman into a bathroom and putting duct tape over his mouth?

Do not fuck with us.
a government agency that understands technology, staffed by former professionals in the various fields. Decisions like this shouldn't be left up to those who have no idea what they're talking about.

That leaves me speechless...
What about all the hardcore gamers who have sinced boycotted those brands found in their games? Don't think for a minute that it's not happening.
