Their efforts ? What efforts ? The day that Microsoft software like Windows and MSOffice won't be easy to crack will be the day Linux takes over the desktop in a snap. I mean, who is going to pay those huge amounts of licenses ? MSOffice is insanely expensive. And in a lot of countries (e.g. South Asia or Africa), it costs as much as several months of salary. Frankly, I doubt MS wants piracy of their products to fail. - -- -o) Pascal Bleser http://linux01.gwdg.de/~pbleser/ /\\ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _\_v The more things change, the more they stay insane. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFFoy/0r3NMWliFcXcRArjiAJ0eSrBstOkZ2kEosLGXRRonb7pR5ACbBU4F v6W76rt4DWBXCSuIQWKHe94= =J4La -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
