Can someone please explain this this to me? Has the world gone mad?

The Greek government has banned all electronic games across the country, including those that run on home computers, on Game Boy-style portable consoles, and on mobile phones. Thousands of tourists in Greece are unknowingly facing heavy fines or long terms in prison for owning mobile phones or portable video games.

This feels like some bad Tom Cruise movie!

The Greek government introduced the law in an attempt to prevent illegal gambling.

They saved the country from all those 9 year olds gambling their milk money away on a vicious game of pocket Mario Bros... I hope Bush doesn't read this.. he may think this is a good idea!

So is a standard installation of windws now illegal in Greece? Solitaire!
