H3 Tec's Terms of Use - Good Grief!

[Jim]

Got a few extra minuets? Need a "chuckle" or laugh to brighten up a drab day?

Check out the Terms of Use page on the all new and improved H3 Tec website.

Be careful not to spew your beverage on the monitor!

Guess we know where he ripped them off from. The idiot didn't even have the common sense to replace Hewlett Packard's name from the legal boiler plate. What a twerp.

Is this it?

I'm not gonna wade through all that crap and get my shoes dirty. Besides, it's generally unenforceable, kinda like that silly email notice he tacks on.

Hmmm....
I would expect to find this notice on a Rangertell calculator page, not a treasure tri-corder page.
I was expecting to read something more like this from the new and improved H3Tec website:

H3Tec... THE FINAL FRONTIER. THESE ARE THE ADVENTURES OF THE H3-TEC TREASURE TRI-CORDER. OUR CONTINUING MISSION: TO EXPLORE STRANGE NEW HUNGSCIENCE. TO SEEK OUT NEW TREASURES FROM THE SAME OLD MANURE HEAPS. TO BOLDLY GO WHERE NO ONE HAS WANTED TO GO BEFORE..! (Star Trek music fading in from the background)...

But Noooooooo...
We get a warning from HP.

Does this mean there will be no Klingon battle cruisers coming after us?
Will HP be sending Chuckie-grams from Texas now?


Best wishes,
J_P

And you still kept the split infinitive.

What happened to the "almost intelligible" Hung?
