I guess that makes my iPhone 5 7.6mm think different.
I hope you mean two vendors: AMD and Nvidia.
I only see Nvidia, by choice. If I were to buy an AMD card I'd have to install AMD Crapalyst Craptrol Manager or whatever unstable driver package they've come out this time in addition to suffering through frame latency spikes.

AC said "Intel video card". So while your statement is true, it's not relevant to what the AC was talking about.
VM machines are not simple
Virtual machine machines might not be simple, but virtual machines can be.
Of course, Microsoft has a solution to this in the form of Office 365. Instead of buying a retail copy tied to a single machine, you could instead subscribe to Office 365, which is tied to the user not the hardware, and can be used across 5 PCs or 4 Macs at any one time.

I went to purchase Diablo III from Blizzard's online store, and after signing in to my Australian (or SEA or whatever region) battle.net account the price went from US$Price to AU$(Price+20).
I tried to play devils advocate on this one, and what I came up with is that bandwidth and rackspace in Australia are much more expensive than other parts of the world.
But I get the feeling Blizzard don't have battle.net servers in Australia, and since most of their content delivery comes through Bittorrent (and who cares if they "seed" it themselves from the US with cheap bandwidth or AU), so I don't know why it costs so much more.
