Sorry consumer X and company XYZ you have unpatched / unupgraded hardware. You will have to buy this $100.00 PCI card or O/S patch to remain legal. Otherwise we will fine you $500,000 a day or throw you in jail. You will have to surrender your old VCR, Tape recorder, CD player and DVD player to the local police and purchase the new $300.00 compliant player. Otherwise we will fine you $500,000 a day or throw you in jail.

So, lets see, every consumer will have to pay $100 per computer + $300 for the player.

Company XYZ you will have to upgrade your 100 servers, because some sneaky Network Admin may be using it as a NAS for all his videos. Or we can throw your CEO in jail. Sorry but the O/S patch is only available on M$ operating systems. You will have to port your whole company to M$ 2000.
Humm. $2000.00 per server for the O/S... Sounds about right.

This is BS!
