Absolutely agree. Without this 'forced' standardization just think where the pc's would be right now, probably about 1988 at best. No BF2 for you. Sure, some little guys have suffered, but the world has gained.chittydog wrote:
They're so big, they can practically force the market to adhere to one standardized way of doing things. Many of you may not like that idea, but without standardization, we wouldn't have most of the mechanical/electrical things we have now. Computers, cars, planes, BF2, guns... even freakin' bed sheets depend on industry standards.
The success of a product or service is often a result of it's quality. Especially in a market where the customer has so many different options. With Microsoft the numbers speak for them-self.GunSlinger OIF II wrote:

Heres what you do, Because i have too every time i upgrade. Use the phone method. When it says that theres a problem it will send you off to a person, tell them your Hard drive or Motherboard blewup. They will ask if this is the only computer the copy is on, say yes, they will give you the installation numbers to punch in and your done. Icon gone and updates ready to install. Believe me it works. Ive used the same copy since it came out. After 4 reactivations over the internet with same copy i have to do this Same thing again and again.Techworld wrote:
