Re:This is a "we should sue" case (Score 1)

To be fair it is without doubt the easiest way to collect data about users. Lets face it the average user can't tell you want graphics card they're using and more specifically what version of the drivers. As Carmack pointed out this is nothing more than a case of stupidity on their part. If they'd really wanted to make money off the back of this infomation wouldn't they have grabbed something more important? Alternatively if this is all the info they wanted then - had they thought it through - they have just asked for it.
