where preorder FO4 in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

Everyone and their aunts are per-ordering Fallout 4. I haven't - as I have never per-ordered a Bethesda game before. Based on past experience, where is the best place to place a pre order (of FO4) to get earliest fulfillment? From Beth's web store directly? Steam? etc. :)

Reply to Ms's strategy for Windows flawed? in Personal Computing Elemental Forums

Bottom line: MS Corp is a business. Anything that they can get away with to increase the Corp's bottom line is acceptable. We are not customers anymore. The days of the customer being 'always right' are history. There is no real personal element to business anymore - its all aggregates, statistics, vast numbers of 'commodities' both human and other. So MS's business model is not a failure - they still make fairly good profits, don't th

@Harpo 'Rebbot' is one variety of Terrestrial furry biped, with very large floppy ears, and large, powerful hind legs. Favored mode of locomotion is 'hopping.' The rebbot variety's distinctive feature that separates it from other terrestrial 'rabbits' is the presence of cybernetic structures. Note that these cyber-structures are not implants, but rather form in-utero. Rebbots are very rare, and almost never actually seen. They like sma
