    I feel tempted to write a bot which sends angry e-mails to companies making false claims. For example, Roccat with their "Power-Grid" technology. "Works with any computer" isn't really true if you only support Windows. How hard is that to understand, huh? Works with any computer is NEVER going to be true because I swear, out there, will be someone running an Operating System which you cannot reasonably support.

        @redenchilada I feel like turning into my life quest to find hardware the Roccat thing will not be compatible with. Then again, that's a complete waste of time so meh.

          @omni Butt seriously. I get the whole operating system thing, but the last bit is the only part I have an issue with; if your hardware/software can support anything which has a reasonable adaption rate, why not say "compatible with everything"? Saying you can't because someone might be running Linux on a dishwasher or something is silly.

            @redenchilada Because "most-used stuff" isn't the same as "everything". That's like saying "everybody loves this record" because it has been the top-selling music record. It's simply a lie.

              @omni Like I said, I'm not arguing your first point, just your second.

      @omni It's cool that they use Finnish words for product names though. :p
