The spread of suckage (Score:2)

by Revek ( 133289 )

They are going for full suckage across the whole spectrum of tech. When this thing implodes nothing they have produced will be of any use to the consumer.

There are strange things done in the midnight sun
By the men who moil for gold;
The Arctic trails have their secret tales
That would make your blood run cold;
The Northern Lights have seen queer sights,
But the queerest they ever did see
Was that night on the marge of Lake Lebarge
I cremated Sam McGee.
