Greece ban gaming
I read in recent U.S and Aussie gaming mags that Greece is banning all forms of gaming,even in private and could encompass stuff that comes with Windows,the old table-tops like Pong,Space Invaders etc.It's supposed to have something to do with on-line gambling?On-line gambling is a big prob here in Aust. as well,but the pollies weren't as agressive as that.

They were both Nov issues,I checked them out when I got home(all my posts are done at local libraries,don't own a comp).Maybe the news was old when those issues came out.

I'm surprised that MarkG didn't close this puppy. This is REALLY old news, and the situation has changed since then... so...

CASE CLOSED
