There should be a task force, that I would gladly contribute tax money towards that would seize the computers of the inept so they can be used by some one who knows how to properly operate/maintain them. When I get some moron on the phone, I should be able to hit a big red button that would summon an Apache Helicopter to the person's residence. The task force would then repel down and bust through the windows - throw some tear gas for good measure - grab the computer and then take it to a shelter where it can be rehabilitated/upgraded and adopted.

I don't take such a hard line, but I do seriosly think that the following should be done...

a stupid tax...

when getting a copmputer, the person's skills and need are taken into account. therefore, if, like the average BT BrokenWorld customer, they are idiots and they want to buy a Cray UberMegaTron 10000 with 32 core, 128bit 8Ghz dual processors, a metric fuckton of disk space and a backbone internet connection, but just want to use it for the occasional email, (seriosly, they do this) then they should pay a massive tax.

This tax would partly go towards paying tech support people better, and partly go towards helping poor techies afford proper PCs.

Hey, we rescue pets from people who abuse them. Why not computers.

C'mon Timmy, we're going down to the pound. Mebbe' we'll find an Alien Wares machine!

As a City of Heroes gamer, I read this in an entirely different manner than intended the first time through. (Task Forces are lengthy multiple-mission arcs performed by a team of heroes. My hero is now, in my mind, rescuing the computer hostages from the nefarious Dr. Luser.)

Make sure to have a defender to boost your Electrical resistance. It tales awhile for him to figure out how to use it, but the Luser Laser can force a hero to hit his or her head on a desk until they fall unconcious.

Man, if a task force can repel from it, then that has to be one kickass webserver.
