    They killed off the penalty, now they just have to put the puck in the back of the FUCKING NET. And stay out of their own zone.

    Not exactly true. Abandonware is still copyright infringement. Copyrights are valid until they expire. The reasons nobody considers abandonware a big deal are a) that the copyright holders don't care if people pirate it or b) the chain of people through whom ownership has passed is so convoluted that nobody really knows who holds the rights anymore, as is often the case when a company falls apart. Someone holds that copyright, and will until they die, transfer it, or it expires (which defaults to something like 125 years now).

    I totally had this coversation back in the day.

    Yeah, it comes up every so often, even without rollbacks. Same with the "One copy" and "legal to download if you own" discussions.

    Four more of the caps in my gf's compy have popped. The computer remains functional, but it really bothers me that there is something wrong.
    All fie of the ones I replaced have not popped though.

    Sounds like there's something wrong with the power, then. Either the voltage settings in her BIOS/elsewhere are off, or her electricity at home is wonky.

    Cookie said my home pic was "bucolic." After looking that word up, I do NOT live in the county!

    OH BOY.

    So, are we doing this or should I continue recording/commence uploading?

    You know that's not at all a negative term, right?

    I actually thought the second one. The light over my head flickers all day long and two outlets on completely different walls will go out randomly. I highly doubt BIOS has ever been touched.
