Assuming all that you wrote is accurate - I am not going to check - then I
agree; you're right about Microsoft. Now, that said, how does that justify
piracy in any way?

If you think Microsoft is misusing its market position to control the market
and pricing, contact your attorney-who will probably not take the case. Then
try the Federal Trade Commission. Next, try your Congress members. Not a
single one of them is going to take an interest - you're not a billionaire.
So, your one opportunity to make a difference legally and morally is at the
voting booth - in the primary, where you can make a difference.

Of course, if you're outside the United States, the sequence may vary but
most countries have similar recourse.

I offered the reality of it all, no justification for
anything. Stop assuming so much.

You were rationalizing. I said piracy is stealing. Your response has been
to argue how bad the persons being stolen from are. That is, at best, a
rationalization. Rationalizing thievery is why we are where we are in DRM.

"> The bottom line- Microsoft has one of the highest profit ratios
in the world. It took them about $39 billion to make over
$12.2 billion in profit. Oh, they are also No. 3
in market value- $284 billion. There are countries that
aren't worth that much.

And all from selling the cumulative intellectual output of its people.
There are whole countries where the cumulative intelectual output couldn't
figure out how to flip a burger. Let's see, would I like to visit Microsoft
country or Somolia? Hmmm
 
Ken,

How did you get your Magicolor 2430DL to work via TCP/IP? I have been
having a heck of a time.

Thanks,
Blair W.
