Penny Arcade today is quite amusing

Honestly, $400 for a system that has games that cost $70 a pop? Exactly where does Mr. Gates think money comes from?

This one also made me laugh

As I feel like Gabe most of the time. I mean really, it should magically back my stuff up if it says backup on it.

All systems cost that much when they first come out.

Well, not all, but it goes in waves. Remember the 3DO? Jaguar? CDi? Sega CD? And those cost that much and more TEN YEARS AGO!

PS2 was $500 Cdn when it first came out. So that's about the same price.

Conversely, I saw a Gamecube for sale new yesterday for $89 bucks, and that's 89 Canadian. And some day, a new XBOX 360 will cost that much or less.

And as for Bill Gates, he knows that money comes from paychecks, as he employs a great many people. Yet, like a drug dealer, he doesn't care about them, because he knows they'll give him whatever money he tells them to give, because he has them right where he wants them.

You are Bill's bitch. Does it feel good? Good, because you won't be escaping his grip anytime soon.
