Computers Not Protected Against Alien Invasions

February 22, 2012 By Mike Hickerson 3 Comments

Should the X-Files prove prophetic and the takeover of Earth by aliens happen later this year, if you’ve got an Acer computer, the warranty won’t cover it.

According to Blastr, the warranty states that it does not cover “damage caused by natural disaster, intentional or unintentional misuse, acts of war, space invasions, abuse, neglect, improper maintenance, or use under abnormal conditions.”

So, should aliens show up and conquer the Earth and your PC is lost, you’re on your own.

    Worst of all, we couldn’t interface with the Mothership’s central computer and spread a destructive virus, thus saving humanity … doesn’t Acer care about humanity?

    That’s some forward thinking EULA… What gets me is that someone actually read the fine print…

    Actually, I think it was an Asus warranty. That is pretty hilarious. And I never thought Asus would fail me…
