Your information is extremely outdated. Maybe you haven't heard, but there's a huge and thriving PC gaming industry with many millions of players and hundreds or thousands of developers. Getting any random game running on a Windows box is a matter of popping in the disc and clicking next a few times while it installs.

Nicely explained. Mind if I borrow your 'yelling guy' simile for myself? I just got a job at Nintendo customer support, and I'm going to have to explain a lot of wifi-related concepts to very un-savvy users.

Almost every state has some kind of waiting period for handguns, unless you have a concealed carry permit valid in that state. Rifles and shotguns are pretty much universally buy-n-run though.

Um.. so what about that XO-1 on my shelf there, that has exactly what you describe? They did do it. It works great.

Excellent tactile feedback on the keys. Resistance and a sharply-defined point at which the key has been activated makes for a really good typing experience. It's tough to understand until you try it.

The vaguely-cube-shaped open-air case is in no way a new concept. Just off the top of my head, there's the DangerDen torture rack. Not to mention every 15-year-old hardware enthusiast who can't afford a real case and has to build one out of lego/wood/cardboard/k'nex. What would actually be interesting would be a standard vertical tower case, built without the need or even the capacity for side panels. Just an open-air midtower case that actually looks good. And don't tell me to take off my side panels, because that's not the point here.
