funny how some of those programs are microsoft games.... its like the scene in the james bond flick Tomorrow never dies, The media guy is getting updates from all his cronies and the software guy says:

"We've just released the newest version of our software. Its riddled with bugs and they'll have to upgrade for years"
"Whats the Situation?" "Two blokes and a fuckload of cutlery!"

Actually it's:

"Yes, sir. As requested, it's full of bugs which means people will be forced to upgrade for years."
