Why are people so hate filled when it comes to the thought of people working in their spare time to help each other? Its called charity.
I think this guy feels threatend. Why be so negative to a concept thats so positive?
GE: Thank you for General Electric how can I help you?
Caller: Yeah, um, I'm trying to play Halo 3 on my Spacemaker IV microwave, and it keeps popping up with a blue screen after the opening movie.
GE: What?
Caller: Halo 3. I just bought it to play while I microwave my cheese sticks. That way I don't have to get up to grab 'em.
GE: I see. Please hold (5 minute wait) We don't support Xbox related inquiry's you'll have to call Microsoft for that. Their number's 555.555.5555

Microsoft: (Indian Accent) Thank you for calling Microsoft how can I help you?
Caller: Yeah got Halo 3, trying to play it on my GE microwave with no luck. It keeps bluescreening after the intro movie.
Microsoft: What is the model number?
Caller: Its a Spacemaker IV
Microsoft: Please hold (5 minute wait) What is the firmware?
Caller: The what?
Microsoft: *Sigh* Below the model number on the front panel there is a number what is it?
Caller: Oh, I see it 4.33.2
Microsoft: You'll have to update your firmware over the internet, you'll need to call GE for that.
And so it would continue... OpenGL let your grace save us all from this gaming hell.
Ouch, no redundancy! In my experience there's always some local law in place - made by people that don't understand the net - that makes situations like this crop up. Perhaps they want to monitor what their people are doing on the internet. Having one pipeline makes that easy.

The Tetris themes for the NES were all Russian songs form yore (1800's or something) The song everyone thinks of when they say "The Tetris Song" is called "Troika" I believe.
