ALICE: Heya big brother… Have you seen Phil around lately? He was supposed to have a new build ready to send out to our beta testing team, and we’re still waiting for him to release it.
ALEX: Don’t hold your breath.
ALICE: Why not?
ALEX: “Everwinter Fights” was released a few weeks ago, and whenever a new computer game is released, programmer productivity goes down the tube.
ALICE: Oh.
ALEX: At least they haven’t requested any hardware upgrades this time.
