Joi Ito talks about the loss of 6 months of information from his machine, and with it his World of Warcraft stuff:

I realize this may sound a bit high drama, but I'm sure I'm not the only one whose brain shuts down to almost all outside input during a broken computer incident. Now I'm running on a fresh install with very little baggage and it actually feels quite nice. This also means no World of Warcraft and possibly more blogging. ;-)

Based on the way I've seen that game discussed, there might be a case that it's approaching "Better than Life" from "Red Dwarf". I've never played, so that might well be over the top - comments?
