Hi Phil, Just received my new Nikon 4000 tonight. It came without Genuine Fractal, a software I would love to get. Well, one more time, Nikon is treating us, non US users, as second class customers! But a FireWire (IEEE-1394) card was included, that I don't need... Any one willing for a trade?

I think you want to be careful. I disagree with this position. Most bundled OEM software is licensed to the computer that has the equipment attached. I would carefully read the license agreement before sending it to your son. It's not worth risking his career over this piece of software. I
