When the devils from Redmond disregard your Blu-ray technology and direct-
ly compete with you over game consoles, aggressive behaviour should be
seen as a form of reciprocity.
If Microsoft finally decide to behave and drop the arrogant attitude, then
maybe, just maybe, their technology will no longer be complemented by dan-
gerous hacks. Until then, cope with the consequences.
