THAT is one heck of a compliment!  Maybe their marketing
department will check with their lawyers and eventually
get the go-ahead to put a bullet-point on the box:

      * Supernaturally Reliable

But this will raise questions, like WHICH deity is behind
the reliability, and whether or not the supernatural force
will eventually demand souls (better read that EULA!).
Also, a new kind of potential incompatibility is introduced:
Your new "Aligned Good" application might not work on your
"Chaotic Evil" operating system.  Tech support becomes a 
prayer line, computers become shrines, user manuals
become scriptures, uninstall becomes an XOR-cism, programmers
become clerics, users become disciples, and the Internet
becomes the Astral plane!

Maybe they'll have a new anime series like Yu Yu Hakusho or
Inu-Yasha, or new Dungeons & Dragons expansion packs, or
a new set of Magic: The Gathering cards, featuring the
battle for cyberspace.

Okay, I got in trouble the last time I extrapolated an analogy,
so I'll just stop now.
