Unless you block them (ahem, hosts file), they do have data on you... it is enough to browse any web page that has deal with Facebook so that they have data on you.

that won't be able to tolerate being hit. Like a child. Or drying concrete. Or another UAV.

And less money for Microsoft.
Now one more reason to stick with what you got & not buy a new PC with a new Microsoft OS in it. It will cost you even more.

Hell, most regular people are still struggling with fact that Windows != Office. They don't get it why office costs as much as it does.

Could it be that Microsoft is OEM-ing Office just like they did Windows on retail computers? It is cheaper than the full retail license, but it is less flexible in the end.

and later it will make good profit. All these consoles were like that. once manufacturing of these components gets full steam, they get cheaper in a mass number.

You might find it, but it might not be where you expect it.

70 yrs after death of Tesla we're not able to figure wireless power distribution.

You failed as CEO. Google gives you all apps for multimedia, so you don't have to do anything there. But they give you 0 enterprise apps, so that is what you could have done. Its not like corporations are going to pirate your apps and risk being sued.

I paid $23 for The Orange Box, which had 3 games. My total play time across all of them is around 1,000 (thousand) hours.

Sorry, your explanation makes some sense, but in the end, you are paying for overpriced product and more profits are going to EA's exec pockets.

It has
Nvidia graphics with HW DX9 support
1680x1050 display
dualcore CPU
was selling with vista at that time.

Stop talking shit of things you know nothing of, I didn't even mention the model name.

I bought my Dell laptop in 2006. Guess what? It is Windows 8 compatible & I'll be getting it.
