Piracy is particularly severe in the defence units too.
M$ encourages piracy in the third world countries and elsewhere ... it is a
marketing strategy for an utterly faulty product. And a marketing strategy
against Linux.
Now if we have a program of gently threatening people in this situation. It is
probably good. Steve might consider throwing the chairs again ... and again.

I agree with A.Mani. Many of the other posts on this subject
appeared to be willing to use a part of the 'establishment'
machinery (such as Nasscom or MS) to get something done.
You always pay dearly in the long run when you utilise tools of
an immoral system to right a particular ill. Like taking a pickpcket
to a police station in my city (Pune) after YOU'VE caught the pickpocket...
I think throwing chairs is the better advice.
