snip while what u say is absolutely correct, the point is that are u an ethical businessman. If u are u choose similiar like minded people to do business with. If your client doesnt care about licence u can call up nasscom and nail the installer as well as the customer. U will still make money as M$ (and most other prop software cos ) will give u a hefty cut in the loot. As other posts suggest there are innumerable successful strategies and tactics to follow. But there are very few non destructive ones to counter crooked customers. I simply walk out of any place that says they dont care about licencing issues cause i want customers who will survive the long haul and unethical ones are not going to last very long. Moreover the same crooked yardstick will be applied to you. a very unhealthy business situation on which to waste time if u ask me. -- Rgds JTD -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
