I was asking for sales information like those "complete sales printouts"
you never gave me, or the "manufacturing printouts" you never sent me.
And yes I am accusing you of not being willing to send me that information,
for whatever reason.

I don't think I upset them.

You stole it.
Whatever did or did not happen, whatever I or you did or did not do, the
fact remains: You used my software without a contract, against my will,
illegaly with NC3 and Genesis.

So you admit you pirated my work.

You cannot understand? I guess I was just not greedy enough to stand your
annoying behaviour any longer.

Oh, come on! You only intend to pay me "via Haage" since you want to sell
them NC3 and Genesis. I would not have heard anything from you again else I
guess.

And this is what's happening.

Haage will pay, not you.

ROFTL indeed. You should really talk to a lawyer. This would not be based
on some would have or could have numbers but on the number of copies you
pirated of course. Doubled or perhaps, under British law, even tripled.
