Simon Phipps's personal commentary

Wednesday, September 4

"Windows Illegal in Greece" - yes, seriously! The Greek government, in a legislative move that makes the Bush administration look positively hip, has passed a law that outlaws possession and use of any electronic game. Intended to target internet gambling (which was already illegal), they accidentally picked up a nuke instead of a penknife because they couldn't tell the difference and outlawed anything including Windows Solitaire. So if you are visiting Greece any time soon, don't take that laptop, they will lock you up.
