    Windows 8 Could Require Internet Access for Continued Use

    Trust me on this... Piracy will never be fully eliminated. We're talking about software and some truly brilliant programmers who have a knack for leveraging behaviours and bypassing security. I don't think I (personally) know how to bypass online validation... but I do know a couple of people...

    Burning my GPU up and what the heck happened to my 3dmark?
