Give Andavari lots of money and maybe even consider getting K a DVD-RW drive.

Him versus who? He has enough money to pay someone (well actually several small countries) to fight for him.

It would've been really interesting if Russian Software Developer had coded and applied a patch (eye patch, pirate, get it) to the fallen Pirate after defeat so that it never happens again.

Bill Gates, Ha, although that might be true, this might be a little off topic, i dont think people give him the respect he deserves.... He might have monopolized the industry, but he donates so much money, to the public, money THAT is not tax deductible (i think) but when he dies all his money is going back into the public school systems and stuff.

You're right about that. I often wish I could choose to send my tax dollars to the causes he and his wife support.

I actually think he's rather decent myself, I remember watching a show that he was on some years ago on public television which made me wonder why so many people spew hate remarks towards him. But I suppose if we were rich and in the public eye multitudes of people would talk s**t about us too.
