Ok, so here I go into the flames.... The real question here is : Would my software have been BOUGHT if it could not be pirated? If it wouldn't, then how much have you lost again? When I see statistics of billions of dollars worth of pirating I always think if these people really consider that if pirating did not exist they would've ACTUALLY SOLD all those copies. Would Ws be the most used OS if they could really impose copyright? Would it be bought worldwide? Or do you think maybe linux would have a chance? _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
