"Excerpted" why?

At any rate...

It is understandably difficult for Americans to worry much about the future.

Funny; I thought the whole reason for the recession was that Americans were worried about the future. Now, if he'd said it's understandably difficult for Americans to worry about the future of personal computing, I'd have to agree.

The Totalitarian Control Group is a consortium, led by Microsoft, intended to force all computer users into a new computing paradigm. This new paradigm, based on the Non-Governmental Social Control Box or NGSCB, will be the new PC standard, according to Bill Gates, and "will allow computers to be used in ways they currently aren't secure enough to be used for."

Hmm, I think I get it. This is a joke, right?
