Are filling our landfills, or waiting in warehouses to be 'properly' recycled. The PC WILL live on as a gaming platform. I never thought I'd see the day John Carmack would be blaming piracy for pulling back from the PC market. Piracy is the scapegoat for companies that make crappy games (music and movies too), Valve and Blizzard certianly aren't suffering, nor are willing to turn their backs on the platform that defined them.

Don't forget to mention the previous 15 generations of PC's that are in the landfills as well.

yeah,, but this will continue as always until some one finds a need for this crap
