Huh? I don't have a problem with someone protecting themselves against
piracy, and I never said I did. Nor did I mention Linux (you keep bringing
it up.)
I have a problem with a company taking up my time so that they can make
more money, and giving me nothing in return. I've been an unpaid policeman
for MS for years. (And so has every other honest comptuer store.) In
return, we get to pay 3 to 4 times what Dell pays for their software, and
we get virtually zero protection from the pirate stores out there.
Is it too much to ask to have loyalty flow both ways?
You might be so happy with the opportunity to sell MS products that you'll
take whatever they hand out, but I'm not.
